This route takes you through the area south of Carcassonne and along the Aude River. Several castles are located along the route, several of which are well worth a visit and are included as waypoints or points of interest.

The first section to Lagrasse is already a real treat, with a beautiful mountain gorge. In Lagrasse, you can visit the Abbaye Sainte-Marie de Lagrasse. We continue via the fairly wide Col de Villerouge to the town of the same name, where you can visit Château de Villerouge-Termenès.

We continue to Félines, where the road becomes narrower and more winding. Via Col du Prat and several gorges, we continue to Padern, where you can stop to visit Château de Padern.

We continue our journey to Château de Peyrepertuse, for which we have to deviate from the route to drive up the narrow mountain road through the village of Duilhac-sous-Peyrepertuse (there and back).
After this castle, we also continue to nearby Château de Quéribus. The panorama from these two vantage points is spectacular. Our next stop is the Hôtel Restaurant Le Relais des Corbières for lunch.

On the return trip, we drive through the Gorges de Galamus, one of the most magnificent natural phenomena in the region. It's truly impressive! The Agly River has carved a deep gorge into the rock here. A hundred meters above the river (which you hear but usually don't see), the narrow road clings to the rock: bends, overhangs, and tunnels follow one another. At the bottom, there's a series of waterfalls and small pools of crystal-clear water.

Next up is the Col de Linas, after which you'll cycle back to Carcassonne via a relaxed route along the Aude River. Along the way, you can stop in Alet-les-Bains, a small medieval town. In Carcassonne, you can stay overnight in a hotel or campsite nearby.
