At 1,163 meters above sea level, the Col du Petit Ballon offers magnificent views of the surrounding valleys and inns. The mountain pastures create a magnificent mountain atmosphere, with the animals raised there. A dream setting in a completely authentic Vosges spirit.

A magnificent pass with few cars compared to the crest road. The climbs are all very pleasant and reveal a magnificent landscape once above the tree line. The descent to Sondernach can be surprising at times due to its surface.
