Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines

Highlight • Settlement

Sainte Marie aux Mines is located in the valley of the Lièpvrette, which is still often referred to as Val d'Argent (Silver Valley) because of the mining industry that used to operate there. Several silver mines in the area of ​​the municipality (outside the center) can be visited today, with guided tours in French, German and English. More detailed information

Climb of the Giants

Highlight • Climb

After a short ascent in the switchbacks of the village below, this 700 meter climb has some pretty terrible percentages. Unless the level is good or the gear ratio is very low, the fear of having to dismount can tickle us, especially after having completed one or two high-intensity passes and if we don't know what awaits us here. You have to know how to catch your breath in 14% 😊
