Very
light bike tour in Dordogne, Lot & Quercy ,
In between the Auvergne in the North, the Pyrenees in the South, the Ardeche in the East and the Atlantic Ocean in the West flows the Dordogne. This river has since long attracted tourists from all over the world. Most famous are Medieval Sarlat UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE (in the heart of 'Perigord Noir'), the Gouffre du Padirac, the Caves of Lascaux and Rocamadour, a Renaissance style village built against the cliff and the area of the valleys of Dordogne and Vézère with prehistoric caves all over the place. In Sarlat enjoy the markets on saturday and wednesday and its galeries and shopping centre in the old city. Visit the cave of Lascaux and come back to the Dordogne valley. Rocamadour, the second tourist attraction of France with its beautiful small canyon of the Gorge de l'Ouysse and the beautiful Dordogne valley,
Find the cycling roads along the river Dordogne
in the Quercy of Lot department alternated with the Causse du Quercy, a smooth
limestone plateau with open scenery on top of the causse. Not as polished as
the scenery of the Dordogne department. Rocamadour, the second tourist attraction of France with its small canyon of the Gorges de l'Ouysse and the beautiful Dordogne valley provide the scenery for a quiet biking tour.
You'll have
plenty of time to visit beautiful Medieval villages like Souillac, Martel, Carennac
and Rocamadour. Different attractions like the old train at Martel.
