Dordogne Travel Information

Biking: Outdoorsy types will love to explore Dordogne on two wheels. While you probably didn’t pack your bike on your flight to Dordogne, there are plenty of rental agencies along the river countryside for you to hop on and enjoy the green and historic land. Peacefully under-populated, the 12th century villages make for perfect scenery with their charming churches, rural character, and fabulous bike routes.

Chateau de Commarque: As you stroll through Beune Valley, on the way to Commarque, make a loop – it will take you about 15 minutes – but you’ll come to an opening in a forest that will lead you to breathtaking views. The perfect opportunity for picture taking, the gorgeous landscape of the open field and full view of the chateau is certainly memorable. Give yourself at least 3-4 hours to enjoy every bit of the space, and pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the tranquil stream nearby. When you’re planning flights to Dordogne, you’ll see that there are few nature walks like this.

Museums: When you book flights to Dordogne, get ready for a serious amount of quirky museums, no matter what your interest. An Apiculture Museum is devoted to the making of honey, the Cycling Museum chronicles all that happens on two wheels, the Museum de la Noix specializes in walnuts and walnut products, and the Musee National de Prehistorie showcases the natural history of the land. Others include the National Wine and River Navigation Museum and the Paper Museum
