The main town of the Périgord Noir, and backing against the Dordogne Valley, Sarlat is a town steeped in art and history. Its variety of historic monuments, alleyways dating back to the Middle Ages and lively squares will make for an unforgettable holiday.
The Château de Biron and the Château du Puymartin will take you back to the Renaissance era. Here, you can picture yourself living at court in spacious and splendid dwellings during your visit. And the truly amazing Jardins du Manoir d'Eyrignac are a wonderful example of the beauty of French-style gardens at their best.
Caves, prehistoric parks and troglodyte locations will also take you on a voyage to parallel worlds. Come and explore these places on foot, by bike, or on a quadbike! There are all sorts of routes available; for hikes lasting several days, Rando Accueil listed accommodation is also a possibility.
Or give way to the temptation of a hot air balloon ride, or a bit of microlighting or flying to enjoy a fantastic view from above of this magnificent landscape. Horse riding, mountain biking and canoeing are also ways of simply enjoying your time here at your own pace. And for the thrillseekers among you, there's climbing and caving available!
Throughout the year and especially during high season, the streets and large squares in the town of Sarlat come alive with street artists and traditional markets. Come and discover the regional produce, known all over the world, and give your taste buds a treat! Truffles, foie gras, duck breast and duck confit will leave you open-mouthed!
