Saint-Cirq-Lapopie

Would you rather explore a different area of the Lot, go to Saint-Cirq-Lapopie. On your way there you will encounter the village of Bouzies. Park your car here to walk alongside the hunting trail (chemin de halage) to Saint-Cirq-Lapopie.

This hunting trail has been carved out of the rocks – as impressive as it sounds, it has been described as easy and beautiful. In Bouzies you can find the Chateau des Aglais castle.

This castle has been built on the cliffs of the Lot river. Hiking further you can enjoy the village of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie. Visit the medieval city center, the wine museum or enjoy a boat ride on the Lot.

Strolling in Rocomadour or Sarlat-de-Caneda

These villages provide excellent routes for strolling. You can take the car here from LOTT Duravel and arrive within the hour for an excellent day trip.

Cahors

The capital of the Lot is Cahors, a beautiful city close to your holiday home LOTT Duravel. We always make sure our cottages are close to at least one big city.

This capital is renowned for its AOC wines (certified quality wines). You can eat its local dishes or enjoy the shops.

Even though LOTT Duravel is located in the Lot department, the Lot-en-Garonne and Dordogne departments are close by and definitely worth a visit too!
