September 15, 2024,Plateau de Sault, Col des Sept Frères, Gorges de la Frau

Track found via Komoot search, and very little modified. Thanks to the one who imagined it!

Demanding road given the difference in altitude, but 5-star road. Meadows, forests, all kinds of rather rolling tracks, a beautiful descent after the pass, an improbable path in the Frau gorges... no more!
