サン＝ミシェル＝シュル＝ムルテでののおすすめライド

Fairly traffic free, perfectly paved path!

As some in the area are not, this one is conveniently located and at least works. We even could use it to repair a tubeless tire.

too many bicycles on busy roads

Col de Mandray (694 m) is a quiet and steady climb in the Vosges, ideal for a relaxing ride or as a warm-up for more difficult cols. From Fraize you climb over 4.5 km with an average gradient of 4.2%. The road is well passable, with little traffic and beautiful views over the Meurthe valley. A hidden gem for those who love quiet, natural climbs.

If you are coming from the direction of the Col de Bonhomme or the Route de Cretes, this is the best alternative to the busy yellow road. Going the other way... phew 😁
