Coucy Castle is a magnificent castle built in the 13th century by Enguerrand III, Lord of Coucy. It was one of the largest and most impressive castles in Europe, with a massive keep and four towers dominating the landscape. The castle was partially destroyed during the First World War, but its ruins still bear witness to its past glory.

The race is 30 km long, with 700 m of altitude difference, and it offers breathtaking views of the castle and the countryside. You can also opt for a shorter distance of 15 km, with 370 m of elevation gain. The race takes place in April and you can register online on the official website.
