센트하임‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪7‬개의 산길

Like the other roads in the Thur Valley that provide access to the Grand Ballon, this climb is one of the toughest in the Vosges Mountains. The climb is 15.8 kilometers long at an average gradient of 6.1%, with a beautiful section through the Col Amic.

From Soultz: Very nice climb. The road surface is great, runs smoothly and you mainly drive through a shady forest with the occasional glimpse through the trees. Few cars encountered, at the end a beautiful meadow and then at the top you can continue to the Grand Ballon.

Four streets come together here.

A treat from the Thann Valley. Beautiful asphalt, a clear view of the Grand Balloon 🎈 in the first bends and accessible percentages. Perfect !

We, the Kemnather Land team, also tortured ourselves like crazy ;-) on our 4-day tour to Lörrach. It was nice!

The approach from Bitschwiller-lès-Thann has an elevation gain of 400 meters over 6.2 kilometers. A maximum gradient of 13%. But it is relatively uneven, so it is not that easy to ride.

Nice climb from Bitschwiller, nice road surface and nice profile

"Torment yourself, you sow!" Udo Bölt's helper is said to have yelled at his team captain Jan Ullrich on this rather second-rate pass at the 1997 Tour de France. It can no longer be determined exactly whether this is exactly the case, but at least the name of the pass "Hundsruck" actually fits the saying quite well and the website quaeldich.de, which has already been mentioned in another comment, also fits this cycling myth quite well.
