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.

Le bourg, Montfort and Le Port: three hamlets whose history is closely linked to that of the Dordogne. The waters of the Dordogne have given Vitrac its prosperity: in the past through fishing and river transport, and today through water sports. As you travel along this loop, you'll discover the village, fishing on its plateau, dominated by the church and its castle. A short detour will take you to the Port, where you'll discover the legend of the bells and meet the Drac, an animal from the legendary Périgord bestiary, closely linked to the Dordogne river. And if you fancy a taste of the water, take the bridge across to Vitrac-plage and its water sports centre.

Rocked by the generous curves of the Dordogne river, the commune of Vitrac has the particularity of having 3 hamlets. By following this loop, you will discover the village perched on its plateau and its church, as well as the medieval village of Montfort and its castle camped on a rocky spur.
