The Col du Calvaire<\/strong> is a legendary pass, featured multiple times in the Tour Alsace<\/strong><\/a> and the Tour de France<\/strong>. It offers a climb from the village of Orbey<\/strong><\/a> with rhythm changes and steep sections, making it perfect for cyclists seeking a challenging ascent, enhanced by beautiful views of the valley.<\/p>

Each year, on a Sunday morning at Lac Blanc<\/strong>, the Col du Calvaire<\/strong> is closed to motorised traffic and reserved for cyclists<\/strong>! Join us with family or friends for Col Attitude<\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>

Just a few pedal strokes from the Col du Calvaire, sport climbing enthusiasts will enjoy the Col des Bagenelles<\/strong>, starting from the Saint-Marie-aux-Mines Valley<\/strong>. This demanding yet steady circuit will test your endurance, rewarding you with a panoramic view at the summit.<\/p>

For those looking for a more relaxed ride, the Route des Cr\u00eates<\/strong> connects the Col du Calvaire<\/strong> to the Col des Bagenelles<\/strong>. This route traverses dense forests, followed by typical Vosges mountain landscapes, providing a less technical itinerary that passes through the Col du Bonhomme<\/strong> and Col du Louschbach<\/strong>. With shorter climbs and less significant elevation changes, it\u2019s the ideal route to appreciate the surrounding panorama.<\/p>

All these passes offer a unique experience for cyclists, blending sport and contemplation in a preserved natural setting.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
