보주‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산길

매우 아름다운 오르막길과 전망

보주(Vosges)의 작고 아담한 고개.

Good, affordable accommodation. Right in the heart of the Cols.

At the pass, the paved Chemin Béry forest road leads to the Col de la Vierge after 2 km and Lac des Corbeaux after 4.5 km. Driving down from the pass towards La Bresse, after 1 km you will reach a fork in the road. Turn right onto the quiet D34 A departmental road, the Route des Américains, which climbs to the Vosges ridge road, the Route des Crêtes. There it joins the Col de Rothenbach with its striking summit. The Route des Américains is 5 km long and has an elevation gain of almost 280 meters.

The Col du Louchpach (978 m) is a lesser-known but charming mountain pass in the Vosges, located along the Route des Crêtes. The climb is relatively short but tough, and leads through a quiet, wooded area with little traffic – ideal for cyclists who want to avoid the crowds of the larger cols. The pass forms a beautiful connection between the Meurthe and Weiss valleys and is often part of longer tours towards Lac Blanc or the Col du Calvaire. The ascent via the Rudlin road is particularly atmospheric: narrow, shady and with an authentic mountain feel.

The Col du Louchpach, or Louchbach, or Louschbach (978 m) is a rather inconspicuous Vosges mountain pass that, like many other passes in the Vosges Mountains, would have gone unnoticed if it weren't for the signpost. It is located in the northern section of the Route des Crêtes on the D148, about 3.5 km from the higher mountain lake Lac Blanc. There is a stand on the pass road where cheese is occasionally sold.

An unexpected trail but without regrets...

The route to the Col d'Oderen is beautiful. The Col is perhaps not as well known as many of the others in the region, but it is highly recommended as it is very scenic and easy to ride.
