Col de la Schlucht – 1,139m

Location: D417 Wintzenheim to Gerardmer (29 miles)

Coordinates: 48.0637972,7.0226052

Ridden: 2006

The D417 from Wintzenheim – near Colmar – to Gerardmer in the heart of the Vosges Mountains takes you over this col. Not high but a very pleasant road which winds its way up through the forest. A good biking road but this is a very popular holiday area so expect lots of campervans on the wrong side of the road.
