Description
You will climb the Grand Ballon from Soultz, taking a pleasant, shady and little used route with good quality surfacing to the Amic Pass
This climb does not have any steep slopes, but it does comprise a constant gradient of between 5 and 6% over the 10 km of the climb.
The difficulty increases when you join up with the Route des Crêtes (more well-travelled) to the Grand Ballon, with an average gradient of 8% over the last 5/6 km to the summit at 1,325 metres of altitude
Touristic points of interest:
- The Thierenbach basilica at Jungholtz
- The Amic pass and its views of the Alsace plain
- The Route des Crêtes
- The Grand Ballon
- The Markstein station
- The Lac de la Lauch
