Along the Water

A driving itinerary in Vézère Périgord Noir

Water is omnipresent all the way from the Auvézère to the Vézère.

If there is such a lush natural environment in the Dordogne, it is thanks to its numerous rivers and lakes.

Here is an itinerary allowing you to appreciate the tranquility of the lakes (Thenon, Hautefort and Fossemagne) as well as the soft melody of the rivers enchanting the peaceful little villages that border them (Azerat, Tourtoirac, Sainte Eulalie d'Ans), without forgetting a curiosity in Limeyrat "le puits de Bontemps" (a natural spring), a delightful way to relax with your feet in the water!
