The Dordogne is one of the most visited regions in France, it is deeply steeped in history, littered with authentic castles, fortified towns and vineyards. There are 6 waterways across the Dordogne offering excellent water activities including canoeing, kayaking, sailing and fishing. France is known for its food, and the Dordogne region is acknowledged as one of the most important food regions of France. The whole of the Dordogne abounds with places to eat and you will never be far from something to suit both your taste buds and your pocket.
April through to October is undoubtedly the best time to visit the Dordogne. Spring brings warmth, bags of fresh market produce and beautiful flowers. Summer is busier and very hot but there are plenty of ways in which to cool off. September and October is less busy when crowds and searing heat mellow, and the grape harvest begins. For committed gourmets, the black truffle season, December to March, is memorable and after a long walk in the winter the open fire and wood burning stoves are an absolute treat.
