Alsace Bike Trip part III - Ottrott to Ingwiller



The third day provided the stiffest challenge as we spent the first part of the day climbing to the highest point of the week. The "Col des Pandours" reached 662m (it was actually a 3eme category climb in the 2006 Tour de France) and proved a tough hour long drag through a fairly chilly dense forest. Ingwiller was fairly small and certainly lacked some of the Alsatian charm of previous stops but the sun came out in the evening for a couple of quiet beers in the charming beer garden by the main road!
