Experience Les Berges de la Dordogne in Tremolat, Aquitaine

Starting from the village of Mauzac and its large water level at the dam, the route follows a canal that was dug between 1838 and 1843 to facilitate navigation to Libourne and Bordeaux. It is thus on the old towpath which was used to "lift" the boats that the valley cycle route is located. Along this route are some remarkable structures, such as the lock and the lock house of Mauzac (transformed into a museum), the "canal bridge" of Saint-Capraise de Lalinde, the lock staircase of Tuilières with a crossing basin, before arriving at the dam of Tuilières of 19,30 m high and 105 m length. This dam which produces 148GWH of annual average electricity is equipped with a fish elevator.

The city of Bergerac was an important port on the Dordogne in the days of the inland waterways. Some developments on the river upstream and downstream still testify to this period, including the dams created to facilitate navigation or for electricity production.
