Roll out of Villeneuve-Minervois and follow the La Clamoux river before the route swings past L'Argent-Double. Castles stack up along the way: the Château de Puichéric, the Château de Pennautier and the Château de l'Abbé. The loop runs 86.9 km and climbs 604 m, all on paved surface, before bringing you back to the start village.
