For the pleasure of the stomach and calves alike
Welcome to the land of rocky castles, foie gras, truffles and sweet white wines. Here, life slows down and you feel like you are traveling back to a simpler time, when France and its people knew how to enjoy the good things. By bicycle, your efforts will be rewarded at the end of the day with rich meals featuring the agriculture and livestock of the Périgord, still steeped in the region's royal history.
Thus, from Cahors to Sarlat via Rocamadour, you will travel through the ages, from prehistoric caves to Gallo-Roman remains, from the medieval period to the beginning of the Renaissance, without forgetting the paths to Compostela. Make way for cultivated epicureanism!
