CYCLE ROUTE “VOIE BLEUE” - BAINS LES BAINS TO CORRE

With the spa town of the Vosges in your rear view, you continue your picturesque cycling adventure between the Vosges canal and the Coney valley. This stage of the Voie Bleue passes through the Vosges forest, populated by spruce, beech and maple trees. Once in the Haute-Saône, the green ribbon of the canal will allow you to discover the atypical manual swing bridge at Selles, which allows the waterway to be cleared for boats.
The route is easy to follow along the towpath of the Canal des Vosges.
