The specificity of this cycle track resides in the succession of works that ensure its continuity: five footbridges, including the recently installed Corbin foundry bridge, cross the Rahin and connect previously separate areas. They guide visitors from the former gravel pits located between ronchamp et La Côte, from the Ronchamp Market Square, to the Ballastières and then towards the Coal Mine, before reaching the center of Champagney and, finally, the Champagney basin.
