I’ve cycled that detour around the tunnel two times. It’s a long detour requiring about 450m of climbing. At the top is an old tunnel with no lights. As long as the tunnel isn’t completely blocked (which it shouldn’t) I don’t think you should have a problem cycling it and perhaps hiking over any area of landslides. A lot of farmers use the road, so if it’s closed, it will probably be closed for tractors. If you go, please take some photos so we can see the issue raised on the tunnel map.
Update: You can clearly see in these photos (taken in summer 2022) that you can get through the tunnel. They said the road inside the tunnel had a lot of potholes, so maybe that’s why it’s closed? You cycle it at your own risk, but I personally wouldn’t have a problem going through it, especially when there is no alternative. The public road administration has a responsibility to maintain and keep open the Eurovelo 1.
