SIGHTSEEING

An evening tour on the Rocamandour tram allows visitors to explore this illuminated site.

The region offers 1001 wonders to discover:
• the prestigious sites of Saint Cirq Lapopie and Rocamadour
• the picturesque towns of Autoire, Loubressac, Carenac, and Puy l'Evêque ... each offering its own particular architectural styles
• a variety of chateaux dating from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance overlooking impressive valleys formed by erosion
• numerous caves (Lascave, Merveilles, Pech Merle, Presque, etc...) show evidence of prehistoric times.
• the Causses Regional National Park presents a striking contrast between the arid plateaus and what lies beneath – a veritable kingdom of subterranean waters (including the Padirac Chasm and the Lacave and Presque caves...)
• tours and places to discover: Préhistologia prehistoric park, museums, animatronic shows that are unique in Europe, the “Féérie autour du Rail” (Kingdom of the Enchanted Railways)
• sports activities: canoeing and kayaking on the Dordogne and the Lot, hot-air balloon flights, caving, climbing, etc.
Animal parks, the Forêt des Singes (Monkey Forest) and the Rocher des Aigles (Eagles' Rock)

And don't forget our local cuisine: truffles, duck, lamb, walnuts, cheese and other delights!

There are three automobile circuits where you'll discover magnificent listed villages:
• the Dordogne with Sarlat la Canéda
• the banks of the Lot and its chateaux
