Leisure and activities in Dordogne Périgord

All the loisirs du PérigordWe offer a wide range of activities to suit all tastes: sporting vacations, relaxing moments, trying out new activities. For couples, friends, sports enthusiasts and families, there's something for everyone. In the Dordogne, you'll discover some remarkable natural areas.

The list goes on and on: the inevitable canoe trip on the Dordogne and Vézère rivers, or the gabarre trip without rowing, but also paintball, swimming, golf, horse-riding, cycling, hiking, fishing, sports, shows and creative activities.

For those who'd like to get some height, there's nothing like a hot-air balloon ride over the valley and its castles, and even for the more intrepid, a parachute jump or a microlight flight... We've selected the best activities for you.

Not forgetting the many amusement parks with their rides, pools and ponds. And why not take part in a prehistoric workshop, visit a village where people still live as they did in those days, or visit the zoo or aquarium....
