    Tips

    August 8, 2019

    Perhaps the most beautiful way to tackle the Grand Ballon - the small road climbs with very even and moderate 5% of Soultz to the pass and winds in many curves through mostly dense forest, which offers especially in summer welcome shade. Only shortly before the pass you come to a larger pasture and the view goes far beyond the Rhine Valley to the Black Forest. Once at the top you have the choice either to continue to the Grand Ballon (there is an information sign on the track every kilometer, how far it is to the summit), or to turn off towards Thann or Hartmannswillerkopf.

    If you want to leave the track, increased caution in the lower area, here is the road in wet sometimes very slippery. The surface is otherwise good on the whole track (08/2019).

      This bike path is incredibly beautiful and not too hot. The road meanders up the mountain on good asphalt, with a moderate incline.

        For me the most beautiful descent from the Grand Ballon, but should also be beautiful as a climb 😉👍🏻
