See Dordogne in a week!

In 2012, the Dordogne river basin was recognized by UNESCO for its outstanding setting and natural heritage and added to the World Network of Biosphere Reserves.

Rising in the Massif du Sancy in Auvergne and emptying into the Gironde estuary near Bordeaux, the Dordogne crosses much of south-west France in a westerly direction.

Most famous are Medieval Sarlat , a UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE (in the heart of 'Périgord Noir'), the Gouffre du Padirac, the Caves of Lascaux and Rocamadour, a Renaissance style village built against the cliff.
