The Ardougne Rooftop Agility Course is a Rooftop Agility Course located above the Ardougne marketplace available to players with an Agility level of 90 or over. It is preceded by the Rellekka Rooftop Course. Players stop failing this course at 95 Agility. It can be started by climbing the Wooden Beams outside of the house next to the gem stall in the south-east corner of the marketplace.
Being the last rooftop course, it has a very high chance of spawning marks of grace, as well as having the highest experience rate, at approximately 70,000 experience per hour. A full lap of this course can be completed in 45.6 seconds (76 ticks) making the maximum experience per hour 70,184 assuming perfect laps.
The Dorgesh-Kaan Agility Course offers a similar experience rate to the Ardougne course; however, Ardougne is typically preferred because it does not require energy restoration while training and it requires less concentration. Alternatively, Hallowed Sepulchre offers significantly higher experience rates for skilled players but requires more attention. As such, the Ardougne course is commonly used for easy semi-efficient training as well as for marks of grace.
Marks of grace
On this course, marks of grace only spawn on one spot, so the player can continue to run the course without picking them up almost indefinitely: marks will stack and only despawn if the player stops using the course for about 10 minutes.[1] However, as a precaution, it is recommended to pick up the marks every so often. Also note that the marks acquired before hopping worlds will despawn after 10 minutes.
Completing the elite Ardougne Diary will increase the chance of receiving marks of grace on this course by 25%. With the completion of the elite Ardougne Diary, players can on average expect to receive a mark for every 2750 experience gained on the course. This translates to 22.6 marks per hour with perfect laps or roughly 1 mark every 3.5 laps.
Marks only spawn when completing the last obstacle. They will spawn on either a 3-minute timer or have a 50% chance of spawning every 2 minutes if the elite Ardougne Diary is completed. This results in a theoretical maximum of 20 tokens per hour without the diary, and 25 per hour with the diary. These theoretical rates can be achieved by using a timer and avoiding jumping the last obstacle until either a 2-minute or 3-minute timer runs out. Both timers continue running even when the player is logged out.
Experience
Using this course alone, levelling up from level 90 to 99 would require 8,649 laps, meaning roughly 110 hours at the maximum hourly rate. There is also a ~26% chance of receiving the giant squirrel pet when using this course from level 90 to 99, which is a substantial portion of the ~44% chance of getting the pet from level 1 to level 99, using the standard courses.

Boosting
Summer pies can be used to run the course from 85 Agility to gain higher experience rates than previous rooftop courses. Using the Preserve prayer can be used to reduce the amounts of pies needed; in this case, bring items that increase prayer bonus. The player's Agility level needs to be boosted to at least 90 only when attempting the first, second and fourth obstacles, because the other obstacles are impossible to fail even at levels below 90.
| Level | Laps per summer pie | Experience | Summer pies |
|---|---|---|---|
| 85 to 86 | 3.6 | 339,198 | 119 |
| 86 to 87 | 7.2 | 374,502 | 66 |
| 87 to 88 | 10.8 | 413,482 | 49 |
| 88 to 89 | 14.4 | 456,519 | 40 |
