On a foothill above Albé, in the Val de Villé valley.

Participants

• Baarde

Plans

I plan to cycle to Albé in the afternoon. From there, I will probably go to the Val d'Argent valley via Fouchy.

Expedition

The ride from home to Albé was very easy. I then had to climb a steep dirt path with a 14% gradient for 800 meters, which was rather slippery for my bicycle's road tires. I finally reached the coordinates around 14:30, took some pictures and went to Villé to eat a quiche and two pieces of cake.

I then continued my route through the Vosges moutains, climbing the Col de Fouchy and the Col d'Adelspach before a long descent to Ribeauvillé.
