Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Steep climb with gradients up to 20%

Highlight • Climb

Despite the fierce climb to the La planche of the belles filles, Tour de France riders perform some fierce head-to-head races here.

Start of the climb towards the Planche des Belles Filles: approximately 7 km to the summit, i.e. the Super Planche, at ~8.5% average. And it starts strong from the start...

Climb to La Planche des Belles Filles

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

La Planche-des-Belles-Filles is a peak in the Vosges mountains, reaching an altitude of 1,148 meters.

Renowned among cyclists, the climb from Plancher-les-Mines stretches for 5.5 kilometers, with an elevation gain of 8.5% and peaks of 28%.

The road is rarely used by motorists but is in excellent condition thanks to the frequent passage of the Tour de France.

Ronchamp

Highlight • Other

Here we recommend a detour up the hill to the Chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Haut de Ronchamp, built to plans by Le Corbusier. Apart from the additional height meters, the chapel is really worth seeing.
