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.

Just before the Col du Haag you can get a pretty good view of the Grand Ballon, now you are "up there" so to speak 🤪

The Machais peat bog nature reserve covers a small suspended glacial cirque. Here you have a beautiful view of Lake Machais and the surrounding forest.

At the Col de Bramont, located in the Vosges, you will encounter a mix of challenging climbs and thrilling descents. As you pass through dense forests and meadows, the air is fresh and invigorating, especially when you reach the summit at 956 meters.

Almost car-free! Small, narrow road shelters from the sun, easy and short climb from Bramont
