For a 10-night holiday, see the highly praised Long Trail to Rocamadour.

Why not take the train?

You can leave London St Pancras or Ebbsfleet in the morning and be at your destination by the evening, making it an excellent (not to mention environmentally friendly) way to reach this holiday. You can relax right from the start of your journey as Eurostar services whisk you through the Channel Tunnel to connect with the world-famous French high-speed TGV trains in either Paris or Lille. We reserve seats for you, there is plenty of luggage space, and refreshments are available on board.

You may even break your journey in Paris if you are travelling via the capital. Sit back and enjoy a truly great rail journey! Look for the ‘by rail’ prices in the Prices & Travel section, where you will also find journey details.

The Dordogne conjures up images of warmth, of dramatic cliffs topped by castles, and of a cuisine of goose and duck with the aroma of truffles. This great river meanders through magical landscapes, where hill-top villages appear dreamily above fields of walnut trees and sunflowers. Explore on foot, from village to village, enjoying fresh panoramas at every turn as you head to the ancient hanging village of Rocamadour, a real highlight.

Admire the captivating vistas as you head from the banks of this great river, along the pretty valley of the Ouysse, to the famed pilgrims' village of Rocamadour.

The Dordogne rejoices in fame for two well-merited reasons: the manifold beauties of the landscape, and the distinctive, rich gastronomy. Both pleasures feature prominently in this walk, which takes you from the banks of this great river, along the pretty valley of the Ouysse, to the famed village of Rocamadour, the destination of pilgrims since the 12th century. The three itinerant walks are leisurely, with some short but steep ascents to the limestone plateaux for splendid views over the river and the fairy-tale châteaux that stand sentinel along its banks.
