Camping Le Plein Air des Bories: Discover Carsac-Aillac Treasures

In this hike, you will follow the old railroad, now a greenway, on part of your route. Discover a rich built heritage (railway viaduct, mill, magnificent village of Aillac). Why not take a refreshing dip in the Dordogne, at the foot of the stone bridge linking the towns of Carsac and Grolejac? At the signpost of the path (parking lot of the village), go up to the main road by taking the small paved street in the extension of the D703. At the road, cross carefully and take the lane in front of you, following the yellow markings on cast iron plates. Pass under the greenway through a small tunnel, then immediately left to take the path that runs along the bike path. You can park on the parking lot next to the wash house, from where you can start your hike.

The milling village of Carsac-Aillac has a history linked to water, with the river Enéa whose waters activated several mills since the end of the Middle Ages. Discover 5 mills through this nice walk. Starting from the Carsac signpost, opposite the church, you will embark on a 10 km walk to discover 5 mills. Start with the Moulin d'O, known as the Tavernerie, a former sawmill. Then, go past the Thouron mill, which used to process hemp, before arriving at the Paper mill, which has become an aquaculture farm. Before discovering the Moulin Neuf, the oldest mill on the trail, go to the Enéa mill with its typical Périgord architecture. During the course, will you be able to spot the Marmites des Géants? These natural curiosities are still mysterious: geological or man-made?

It's "the" all-terrain loop! In fact, by mixing paths and bike-roads, you'll be able to enjoy the beauty of the landscape. You'll ride along the Dordogne River, then away from it to discover the village of Calviac-en-Périgord, the "Marmites des Géants" at Carsac and the cliffs of Saint-Rome... And don't forget to pedal!

You will begin the hike by the village of Veyrignac, typical village of the Périgord Noir. Your route will be marked out by beautiful stone buildings: fountain, stone hut, mills... From the call sign located on the municipal parking lot, join the road and go left in the direction of "Château de Fénelon". After 30m, at the crossroads, take the small road on the left. 100m further, at the gate of a large property, turn right and follow the stone wall. After about 50m, turn right towards the church, then the communal oven. At the end of the village, leave the road and take a grassy path on the right that goes down to a fountain. The topoguide containing the route of this hike is available for purchase in our tourist offices in Carlux and Salignac.

From Groléjac, the path turns away from the Dordogne valley and heads towards Sarlat La Canéda, along a greenway located on an old railroad line. The forest is omnipresent, overlooking the small valleys and leaving the hiker wide shoulders. Between Sarlat and Carlux, the Sarladais hillsides offer glimpses through the forest to villages with their blond stone and traditional architecture.

Former pilgrimage route of 180 kilometers to join the Perigord to Rocamadour, this magnificent route is now marked out, and allows you to cross the vineyards and hills of Bergerac in complete safety, before going along the green Dordogne valley and its cliffs, to arrive in the valley of the Ouysse. Starting from Grolejac la Mouline for this tenth stage, you will cross the village of Veyrignac and its church Saint-Pierre-ès-Liens then you will find the river at the level of the castle of Fénelon. You can admire its circular towers and its roofs covered with lauzes. Opposite Fénelon, on the other side of the Dordogne, stands the fortified village of Carlux where you can see the ruins of the ramparts, the entrance towers and the keep of the old castle. Before leaving the village, you will admire a curious gothic chimney called "sarrazine".

Magnificent walk starting from Sainte-Mondane, you will pass by the foot of the Château de Fénelon and cross the oak forests and the countryside of the Périgord Noir

All along the walk, you will be able to read the signs of the "Chemin des Meuniers" which will give you interesting information about the mills you will meet, their functioning, the work of the millers, etc..

The long route will take you to the Lascombe, Patot and Moulin Haut mills, then on to the Beauvais, Neuf and Roc Blanc mills.

A loop "worth the effort"! Indeed, it's a red loop, but your efforts will allow you to observe and contemplate the famous Château de Fénelon. But that's not all! You'll also pass through the villages of Sainte-Mondane and Veyrignac, where you'll see water mills, a fountain and a splendid viewpoint.
