The Col du Fouchy is a 606 m high pass in the Vosges on the border of the Bas-Rhin and Haut-Rhin departments .
The pass is located about 15 km west-northwest of Sélestat between the valley of Giessen and the valley of Lièpvrette to the north . The road connects the places Fouchy over the pass with Rombach-le-Franc and further with Lièpvre on the south side.
The approach from the north leads on the RD 155 alternately through meadows and shorter wooded areas and offers a clear view of the Giessen valley shortly before the pass. In the south, from the junction of the N 59, the RD 84.1 runs gently uphill along the Rombach through the two villages until it reaches the pass in the upper part of Rombach-le-Franc after a right-hand bend with a steeper gradient, mainly in the forest.
