The ride

From Arques you roll out past the Château d'Arques, then on to the Château de Serres before the route follows La Sals and L'Aude. The Corbières-Fenouillèdes nature reserve opens up the middle stretch, with the Château de La Serpent and the Couguaing river along the way. A last castle at Belcastel, then back to Arques after 73.5 km, mostly on paved roads.
