Welcome to the Vosges mountains, a gravel paradise where Lac Vert, Lac Noir and Lac Blanc await you, alongside the legendary Grand Ventron. Despite its renown, this area remains surprisingly unspoiled and uncrowded, much to our delight. Amid endless fir and spruce forests, the Route des Crêtes with its spectacular panoramas, welcoming mountain farm inns and gourmet stops around Munster cheese, the Vosges offer a total immersion in unspoiled nature.
Two ways to experience a Vosges adventure:
The star-shaped stay, 4 days: based at our home camp, for a fully comfortable stay, ideal for exploring the lakes and the Grand Ventron without changing accommodation.
The self-guided trip: a full crossing of the range, stage by stage, with a new place to discover each evening. The Route des Crêtes, mountain farm inns and ever-changing landscapes day after day, for a total immersion in the Vosges.

A perfectly organized weekend, especially when it comes to logistics and support for the riders. Meals were ready, and even coffee breaks were set up at key points along the route planned by the guide.
The guide, recruited by GravelUp for the weekend, knew the region inside out and adjusted the route based on the group’s abilities. Everyone, no matter their level, could enjoy the experience, and that was really appreciated.
What more can I say? It makes you want to do it all over again!

Great experience with GravelUp, despite my beginner level. Great team, great atmosphere. A participant broke his chain - the technical team intervened and in 10 minutes we were back on the road.
