Details

This 13-km canoe or kayak trip is our favourite. Indeed, this part of the Vézère is the richest and most diversified: it offers exceptional natural landscapes, ancient villages, and majestic castles all along. A river configuration gives you the opportunity to alternate small rapids and deep, calm zones. From the age of 5 years old, this getaway will delight young children because it is an opportunity to have fun with your family in an idyllic setting. Take the time to swim or stop to admire the natural and historical heritage of the Périgord Noir.

Super nice canoe trip made of 13 km. Definitely recommended. You pass 3 castles and beautiful moorings along the bank and in the middle of the river. Afterwards you can have a drink and a meal in one of the restaurants in the village of St. Leon. Nice cozy village.

The managers and employees were friendly, professional and very pleasant. We loved our trip, the organization and the fact that we were not on the river much. Thanks to them for this good time and their smile.
