A flexible experience to suit your needs

Feelout's canoes are available in several configurations: single kayaks for those who prefer to paddle alone, or two-seater canoes (with a third seat option for children under 12 in the middle)., perfect for sharing the experience with two or three people. Whatever the choice, each boat is designed to offer stability and safety, even for beginners.

Additional activities for total immersion in the Périgord

In addition to canoe rentals, Feelout also offers mountain bike and electric mountain bike rentals, as well as guided electric mountain bike (E-MTB) tours. These tours, led by Pablo, a state-certified instructor, allow you to discover the Périgord Vert from a different perspective, along picturesque trails suitable for all levels.

Electric mountain bike rides are available in several options:

• 2.5-hour outings: ideal for a quick and exotic discovery of the surroundings of Excideuil.

These hikes can be tailored to suit your needs: a sporty, relaxing, or history- and heritage-focused route. The electric mountain bike allows you to manage your effort while accessing the most beautiful trails thanks to its various assistance modes.

For a complete experience, Feelout offers a combined e-MTB and canoeing day. After a morning spent exploring the trails by bike, participants can cool off with a canoe trip down the Isle River. This package also includes a picnic made with local produce, for a friendly moment in the great outdoors.
