La Bouquerie Campsite, Montignac

In true French style Le Petit Train will take you on your short journey from the bottom of Rocamadour to the town centre above you.

Situated at the foot of Carennac village this watersports centre offers more than just fun on the water! They offer three main activities; canoeing or kayaking, group canoeing with up to six people in the same boat, and adventure trekking with overnight camping out in the wild.

A relatively small theme park but with a great atmosphere, plenty to do and a good day out for all of the family.

In the heart of the 'Purple Perigord' you can share and enjoy the passion of owner Jean-Pierre who has been part of competitive karting since the late 1980's.

An hour long horse show and theatre production that is based on the rivalry between the English and the French with lively, action-packed fun.

A great place for a family day out and to escape the pre-historic world of the Dordogne...instead, enjoy the family atmosphere and displays of this fresh water aquarium.

The pretty old town of Montignac serves as a good base for visiting the nearby prehistoric caves.

Standing out as one of the most charming towns in the region, this medieval dwelling remains much as it was when it was built in the 14th century. 

The town and the surrounding prehistoric sites have been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site. Nearly 150 sites have already been discovered and contain significant finds dating back as far as the Middle Stone Age - about 300,000 to 40,000 years ago.

The village of Beynac-et-Cazenac is thought to date back to the 12th century when its imposing cliff top château was constructed.

It's hard to imagine a nicer village than La Roque-Gageac, with its huge limestone cliffs that tower behind the Renaissance-style houses built in creamy stone with burnt red roofs. 

A base for exploring the region, Souillac has a medieval past and is filled with Romanesque-style sculptures.
