Bonjour Oui, le circuit VTT nº 3 « Les Grilloux » paraît faisable en VTC, à condition que le vélo soit équipé de pneus assez larges et légèrement cramponnés, et que le terrain soit sec. Pour en être sûr à 100% demandez conseil à l'office de tourisme des 1000 étang www.les1000etangs.com Bonne balade ! Guillaume de la Team Massif des Vosges
