Panoramic tour on the local mountain of MartelFrom the beautiful town of Martel in the north of Quercy, you can undertake a wonderful tour to the highest peak of the region, Mont Mercou. This mountain, which the inhabitants of Martel affectionately call "our little Mont Blanc," offers a majestic view over the Dordogne valley between Meyronne and Floirac. In good weather, the distant view extends to the volcanic peaks of the Auvergne more than 100 km away. Credit where credit is due: There is also a Mont Mercou on Mars – named because its shape actually resembles the rocky ledge of its earthly counterpart.

Emperor's tour through one of the most beautiful Dordogne sections in QuercyFrom the charming village of Creysse, surrounded by walnut fields located in a Dordogne loop, you can take a wonderful and varied tour around the Vallée des Rocs. It includes everything that characterizes this area: great views from the cliffs over the Dordogne, mighty rocks, romantic and dry stone wall-lined paths, and as a highlight at the end, a phenomenal panoramic view over large parts of the Vallée des Rocs all the way to the Auvergne volcanoes in the distance. Steep and rocky paths alternate on this hike with very relaxed sections. If desired, a refreshing swim in the Dordogne is even possible afterwards: near Gluges there are beautiful bathing spots below a cliff.
