"Carcassonne, located in southern France between Montpellier and Toulouse, was founded in the 6th century BC by Iberian Celts. The Romans transformed the hill into a fort by building a defensive wall. In the 5th century, the Visigoths conquered the city, followed by the Arabs in the 8th century, who were expelled by Pepin the Short in 759. In the 12th century, Count Trencavel built a castle on top of the Roman city wall at the highest point of the hill. Carcassonne became a central element in the defense system on France's border with Aragon. In the mid-13th century, the dilapidated wall was protected by a second, outer city wall." This is how the website for the television series "Treasures of the World – Heritage of Humanity" describes the city, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. ...

Fairly flat road on asphalt

The road between Aigues-Vives and Villepassans is very pleasant, unfortunately the Cesse is a little overexploited, rarely flows and an entire slope has been deforested.

Magnificent church with stone vault which was once the seat of the Archpriest of Minervois.

Good accommodation for one night, pizzeria around the corner.

The resurgence of the Boulidou. A magnificent place for swimming... when there is water. The resurgence of the Cesse offers fresh water after its passage underground, disappearing well before Minerve to resurface at Boulidou.

Superb road from Monteils to Capestang, ideal for road cycling

Picturesque town with a large arched bridge.
