What could be better than a canoe trip from La Roque-Gageac to discover and appreciate the magnificent landscapes and historic heritage of the Périgord?

Sail along the Dordogne and discover the pretty villages typical of this region of Nouvelle-Aquitaine! Grab your paddle and paddle 25 km down this river that runs alongside the Dordogne Valley and its historic castles.

At the rhythm of your paddles, discover the riches of this natural region, including its many castles: Castelnaud Castle, a masterpiece of medieval architecture, Beynac Castle, a unique fortress with a history steeped in history, and Milandes Castle, listed as a Historic Monument and an unmissable site in Périgord and the Dordogne Valley, not forgetting Fayrac Castle and Malartrie Castle.

Then pass through the cingle at Montfort and its castle, continue your canoe trip along the valley and you'll arrive at the medieval bastide town of Domme.
