June 2, 2025, Route des Forts section - worth the tiny detour

Made this segment as Komoot would not lead you here due to the extra few extra hundred meters. But you will have a very scenic few from there!

Good enough road surface and fairly car free. Leading you towards the actual Route de Forts.

Beautiful, rather easy passes with a wide and perfectly paved road. Very beautiful laces!

A few hundred meters from the parish church is the chapel dedicated to Notre-Dame de la Brosse. The name of this chapel comes from the old French "brossailles", "brushes", which designates a place covered in forest.

The station boasts architecture from the end of the 19th century. In front of it is a locomotive from the early days of railway history. An impressive place.

Here the railway line was expanded to two tracks. This bridge over the Moselle is a witness to this time. One half of the bridge is very well developed as a voie verte, the other half has been left in its original state.

Col famous for cycling, it is also a popular crossing point for hikers. The GR7 route follows it and there is a stopover gîte (https://www.lahautefourche.com/Fran%C3%A7ais/Accueil).
