The circuit starts at the Gérardmer tourist office. The "poly climb" will get you going right from the start! For the less athletic, an electric bike will be appreciated. But this is the counterpart to the pretty view you will discover at the top of the hill. The descent will lead you via a cycle track on the banks of the lake of Longemer which you will ride around. Then you will cross a typical Vosges forest of white fir trees, before crossing the old stone bridge of the fairies which separates the commune of Xonrupt-Longemer from that of Gérardmer. Once in the "pearl of the Vosges", the route will take you around the famous lake to return to your starting point.
