A hike starting from the magnificent bastide town of Monpazier in the south of the Périgord Pourpre. Small paths and chestnut tree undergrowth. The walk is quite long, but the elevation gain is low. Enough to spend a very good afternoon (or morning).

This walk traces the history of Saint-Cyprien from the 6th to the 21st century and allows you to visit the upper part of the village, which bears witness to the origins and history of the commune.

This hike takes you around the commune and allows you to discover beautiful residences as you walk through remote hamlets. You can enjoy lovely panoramic views. The route leads you away from the urban centre.

A mixed walk (forest paths and small roads) around the bastide town of Monpazier. A complete immersion in the undergrowth and in a countryside that has hardly changed in over 50 years. A truly remote spot. Updated at the request of a local resident, the start of this hike has been moved to Saint-Cassien, near the village church.

Enjoy discovering the village of Beynac (one of the most beautiful villages in France) and don't hesitate to visit its castle, a jewel of 12th-century military architecture that has been constantly remodelled since then. You will then be able to admire the surrounding countryside of hills, valleys, shady forests, green meadows and typical Périgord houses with their undeniable charm.

The circular Dolmen offers visitors the chance to explore the southern part of the commune of Saint-Chamassy with a short detour to the dolmen known as "Roc del Cayre".

With this walk, you will not only visit Beynac, the famous village clinging to its cliff, with its castle overlooking one of the Dordogne's meanders, but also Cazenac, a quiet little hamlet high up in the valley, with its small church featuring remarkable modern stained glass windows.

This loop allows you to discover the pretty village of Audrix and see Labatut Castle.

You are in the Valley of the Five Castles, and the route offers splendid views. Starting at the Ruisseau du Treuil stream, you will skirt the Massif de la Bonnat, where oak, hornbeam and boxwood trees flourish, and discover fountains, wash houses and mills.

This short circular loop around La Roque-Gageac offers a return trip with views from the top of the La Roque cliffs and a crossing of the village from east to west.

A short, easy hike between La Roque-Gageac and Castelnaud with beautiful views of the village and the castles of Castelnaud-la-Chapelle, Beynac and the Dordogne valley. Crossing the stream to reach the viewpoint is optional.

Come and discover this beautiful town with its 19th-century houses along the Dordogne. Then set off among the holm oaks, walking alongside old stone walls, dry stone huts and a wash house, with numerous views of the Dordogne as your guide. At the end of the walk, plan a short trip on a gabarre to admire this town from a different angle.

Majestic and imposing, Biron Castle perches on a hill, reigning supreme over the surrounding countryside. This landscape of hills, valleys, woods and fields where cows and horses graze is a haven of peace conducive to meditation.

Limeuil fait partie des plus beaux villages de France, labellisé en 1990, et témoigne d'un passé exceptionnel. Ruelles escarpées, maisons moyenâgeuses ou vieilles échoppes . Village médiéval de caractère, situé à la jonction des rivières Vézère et Dordogne, Limeuil prend place parmi les joyaux du Périgord.
