Rouffignac-Saint-Cernin-de-Reilhac Towns, Villages and bastides in Rouffignac Saint Cernin de Reilhac

Rouffignac is a dynamic village, positioned high, which gives it great interest in spring and autumn, it is always above the fog!

You will notice while walking there that the architecture is different from that of the surrounding villages. This is due to the village's past, which was devastated at the end of the war and rebuilt. Rouffignac is a strong village, which has risen from its ordeals. On weekends, in all seasons (but especially in spring, summer and autumn), the Sunday market is very popular and of high quality. You will find there all the Périgord products and also their organic version. The small shops are well developed and the tourist offer in the surrounding area attractive.

Rouffignac is well placed for daily wanderings to Périgueux and white Périgord, it is also in the heart of black Périgord, a few kilometers from Plazac, Saint-Léon-sur-Vézère and the Vézère valley, its prehistoric sites, Montignac ( and the Lascaux cave) and Les Eyzies a few dozen minutes away.

But Rouffignac also defends its heritage! Beautiful hiking loops with beautiful views are to be done all year round, there is also the very interesting Rouffignac Cave to visit (by train, children love it) and the pretty Castle of Herm closed to the public until 2024... The Sardinian Equestrian Center, which offers rides, also offers a very beautiful show in season. In summer, hot air balloon rides are possible from the exit of the village and for bicycle lovers who are afraid of the coast, electric bikes are available for hire.
