The Col du Firstplan is currently closed until mid-December 2023 due to a slipped road. And in contrast to other "barricades", which you can easily pass with a racing bike, here the entire road has actually slipped away and there is a hole several meters deep.

Nice climb and nice departure. Part of the fifth stage of the Tour de France 2019. Here you can easily collect extra altitude around Colmar.

If you want to get to Munster from the west in the valley, the access via the Col Du Firstplan is highly recommended - on the one hand you can collect altitude meters and on the other hand it is much more varied than the rather flat approach directly from Colmar.
