The ride

Roll out of Minerve and let the ride unfold past the Le Brian river, then the La Cesse and the Le Jaur, before climbing into the Parc naturel régional du Haut-Languedoc. With 1732 m of elevation gain across the route, the road keeps things interesting from start to finish. The surface is paved throughout, with just a sliver unpaved, and the loop brings you back to Minerve where you began.
