The scenery on this route is remarkable, it is tricky to find the right road out of Cernay, as it is not particularly well signposted, but well worth the effort to find it.
The twists and turns make for a great drive, but as an old Tour de France route, be prepared to meet cyclists and motorcyclists a plenty.
There are lots of hairpins and gradient changes and it’s a bit like the Peak District but far more mountainous.
A few corners are cobbled which could be slippery in the wet, but the views are stunning, the road surface, in the main is good, and this road is a challenge, but one that rewards with some stunning views
There are some great hairpins running up the hill to Viel Armand, a French war memorial cemetery sitting on the top of a mountain The descent again has some great views, and steep descents.
