The Col du Louschbach (French pronunciation: [kɔl dy luʃbax]) is a secondary mountain pass in the Vosges Massif. It is a crossing point on the Route des Crêtes (D 148).
Geography
Located at an elevation of 978 m, the pass links Le Valtin in the Vosges to Le Bonhomme in the Haut-Rhin. It links the upper Lorraine valley of the Meurthe, from the Rudlin near Le Valtin, with the upper Alsatian valley of the Weiss — more precisely one of its tributaries, the Béhine, which flows through the commune of Le Bonhomme. It intersects the Route des Crêtes between the Col du Bonhomme and the Col du Calvaire.[2]
