Moderate road ride. Good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

View of the Château de Foix

Highlight • Viewpoint

Quite worthwhile for a photo, but it's not a particularly good place to take a break here. There are neither shady places nor seating. If you come by here anyway, you can stop for a moment.

Foix Castle

Impressively renovated. The museum unfortunately only in French, not even English 🤷

21 Rue des Marchands / Foix / Nico owns and runs this terrific café in the centre of Foix - great food, beer and wine - the lunchtime menu is excellent value. He's also passionate about coffee - a rarity in this part of France.

Foix

Highlight • Settlement

Located at the crossroads of the Ariège and Arget rivers, the town of Foix is overlooked by its magnificent castle. At the gates of the Ariège Pyrenees, the medieval city has a train station and a wide range of accommodation and dining options.
