Arrival in Mouleydier (cat.A)/ Arrival to Bergerac (cat.B)
Mouleydier – Eyzies de Tayac (cat.A) /Bergerac – Le Bugue (cat.B)
approx. 50 km / approx. 55 kmToday is all about rivers! Starting from Bergerac you cycle on small hidden roads through characteristic villages, forests and across vast fields, along the course of the river Dordogne. Although today’s route is relatively hilly, a swim in Limeuil awaits you as a reward, at the confluence of the rivers Vézère and Dordogne!
The terrain today is again slightly hilly. Eyzies-de-Tayac is world capital of the prehistory! Keep your eyes peeled for the Neanderthals! Afterwards you cycle through cool valleys and along untouched rivers with ample trout in it. We recommend a visit to the Château de Commarque, before arriving in the medieval village Sarlat in the late afternoon.
Fabulous sights are on today’s programme: Monfort and its palace and the fortifications of Domme, a medieval town located approx. 300 metres above the river! Please take your time to explore the little alleyways and little squares of Sarlat on foot.
Palaces in all varieties! We recommend you start early today, since there is so much to see! After leaving Sarlat you return to the Dordogne-valley at La Roque-Gageac. Here you are spoilt for choice: Beynac Palace, Castelnau Palace, Marqueyssac Palace, Fayrac Palace or maybe Les Milandes Palace? Afterwards you proceed to Siorac-en-Périgord or Belvès.
Die Festungsanlage von Belvès hat es über all die Jahre geschafft, seinen Charme beizubehalten. Weiter geht es durch unberührte Landschaft und hübsche Ortschaften, bis Sie Beaumont du Périgord erreichen, eine englische Bastide des 13. Jahrhunderts, welche durch seine gewaltige Kirche überragt wird. Sie radeln durchs Couze-Tal, stets mit Blick aufs klare Wasser, vorbei an zahlreichen Mühlen, bis hin zum Château de Bannes, ein Meisterwerk mittelalterlicher Architektur, und dem Château de Lanquais.
Enjoy your final day and explore the vineyards of Bergerac and Monbazillac by bike. Once you are past the hills, the magnificent Château de Monbazillac awaits you. Sample the world-famous ‚Beerenauslese’ and marvel at the fantastic view over Bergerac and the valley!
