Le Champ du Feu

The Champ du Feu can be reached from eight different sides, but the climb from St Martin is the toughest. It starts gently, then kicks up after Breitenbach, holding a steady 7 to 8% on average. From there, the road takes you past Col de Kreuzweg and Col de la Charbonnière, with most of the ascent in the forest. At the top you’ll find a roundabout and a viewing tower. On a clear day it’s a fine place to pause, but if the weather turns, best to keep rolling as it gets windy up there.
