What to do on the Vézère?


 

In the Vézère valley, you will be able to enjoy a hot air balloon flight to fly over the beauties of the valley, such as the Château de Hautefort. The valley is full of beautiful castles perched on rocky outcrops, but also pretty villages like Collonges-la-Rouge, with its beautiful 15th and 16th century houses, its grain and wine market. A landscape full of colours that you will love seen from above. It is truly a unique experience to do as a couple, with family or friends!

And if you want even more adrenaline, why not take advantage of the Lubersac motor racing circuit for a karting race on this site near Limoges. More than 800 meters of track to do with friends, family or colleagues for a team building session.

The main tourist attractions of the Vézère valley

The Vézère valley is full of treasures: an exceptional historical heritage, but also a superb natural setting that will certainly not leave you indifferent.

Nicknamed the "Valley of Man" thanks to the presence of world-famous prehistoric sites such as the Lascaux cave in Montignac, but also the Cro-Magnon shelter, the Font-de-Gaume cave or the Combarelles cave in Les Eyzies, which have earned it a UNESCO world heritage status.

In addition to these sites, which will take you back tens of thousands of years, you will also have the opportunity to visit beautiful medieval castles such as Losse with its beautiful terraced gardens or Campagne at the foot of the cliff overlooking the valley by nearly 150 metres, surrounded by a moat and a beautiful park.

The castle of Tayac, located in Eyzies-de-Tayac-Sireuil is also worth the trip and overlooks all the surroundings and in particular a plunging view of the village, perched on a rocky terrace of a vast shelter under rock. Nowadays, it houses the National Museum of Prehistory, offering several million objects of the lithic and bone industry, burials, but also Paleolithic art on engraved or sculpted blocks.

The Vézère valley is a mythical place which, in addition to its rich and very ancient history and exceptional heritage, also has a very refined gastronomy: Périgord is not only the land of foie gras, terrines and black truffles, but also wines, ceps, chestnuts and nuts. A multiple - and above all unique - discovery for all tastes, even the most refined!
