Leaving from Schirmeck, this route takes you through the Bruche valley to Saâles, the last town in Alsace before the Vosges department. From the slopes of Salm, you reach the peaceful villages of Plaine and Saulxures before climbing up to the Saâles plateau. Returning from Saâles, the route takes you to the Col de la Salcée, from where you descend through the hamlet of Stampoumont before returning to Schirmeck on the cycle route along the Bruche.
