Worth a stop not only when it rains: Refuge "Pierre des Trois Bans"

Fraize – Gateway to the Vosges A quiet village in the Meurthe valley, ideal starting point for climbs such as Col du Mandray. Fraize breathes history and nature, with charming streets, an old church and memories of WWI and WWII.

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 😁

Instead of driving down the Col de Bonhomme on the yellow road, there is an option to drive into the "forest" further up the Route de Cretes in the bend. You drive on tarred roads through the forest to the Col de Mandray. Simply great...

the descent on the silver valley is magical to do at full speed, good tour

Please bring a bakery bag with you to collect cigarette butts!

There are no cars here early in the morning. Perfect peace and quiet and a long but moderate climb in both directions with a correspondingly fun descent
