Whether it’s following the Way of St. James, horseback riding, canoeing down the Dordogne River, cycling the scenic roads of Quercy, fly fishing, or tree climbing, there are countless ways to escape and enjoy the tranquility of the countryside.
North of Château Blanat, the lush landscapes of Corrèze offer an abundance of sites to discover and trails to explore. Highlights include the Murel and Gimel waterfalls, the Chemin des Moines, and Aubazine Abbey. Enjoy fly fishing and canoeing on the Dordogne River at Argentat and Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne, or try via ferrata, long-distance GR trails, and shorter hiking paths.
To the south, the Dordogne Valley winds between the limestone plateaus of Haut-Quercy, offering a variety of scenic routes for nature lovers and admirers of historic stone buildings. You can explore these routes on foot, by horseback, or by car. We can arrange bike rentals delivered directly to the Château or book horseback tours with our trusted partners, so you can discover the region’s picturesque trails at your own pace.
To the west, the Causses de Martel and the Vézère Valley in Périgord present a different landscape and a wealth of outdoor activities and leisure parks to enjoy.
