The approximately 5 km descent from the Col de Fouchy to Rombach-le-Franc offers beautiful, picturesque scenery. The road is not very wide, carries little motorized traffic, and there are only a few tight hairpin bends. Arriving at the bottom of Rombach-le-Franc, you'll see a small, sleepy, and idyllic village.

The Col de Fouchy is a beautiful drive. The narrow road can get quite narrow, especially on the descent to Rombach-le-Franc and Liepvre. You should definitely plan some safety precautions on the descent, as a large truck can suddenly block a tight left-hand bend. While traffic is sometimes light, it can get quite hectic, especially on long weekends and holidays, as many day-trippers and motorcycle groups cross the pass. Unfortunately, dangerous situations often arise due to excessive speed and overhang.
