    • Canoe kayak rental in La Roque Gageac with Canoë Dordogne

      The castles of the Dordogne Valley await you, to admire them from the most beautiful viewpoint: from the Espérance river. Come and rent a canoe or a kayak in the beautiful village of La Roque-Gageac and go for a walk on the Dordogne from 2 to 25 km downhill, depending on the choice of your route.

      Canoë Dordogne is located in the village of La Roque Gageac, you will be equipped with a life jacket and a waterproof container will be given to you for your belongings, then on the way! Some departures are free from the base and you go down the river on a defined course or to the place of your choice. 4 other courses are available:

      • La Roque Gageac – Les Milandes: 9km with return by bus
      • Vitrac – Les Milandes: 16km with departure and return by bus
      • Carsac – La Roque Gageac: 16 km with departure by bus
      • Carsac – Les Milandes: 25km with departure and return by bus

      The routes are very complete, you discover the Valley of the Castles, but also the fauna and flora, the landscapes, the wild nature of the Dordogne Valley. Cliffs, the cingle de Monfort, the bastides in the distance, the gardens and perched villages (Beynac, Domme, Castelnaud…). The descents are done along the water, the Dordogne is a beautiful stable river and the navigation conditions are good. Explanations will be given to you before departure, on the route, navigation techniques, places to stop. Many beaches and rest areas for a picnic or a break punctuate the routes. Boats can accommodate:

      • Canoe: from 2 to 4 people
      • Kayak: 1 to 2 people
      • Big Canoe: 8 people or 10 children (with adult)

      Good to know: Courses lasting several days (2 to 7 days of roaming) can be offered to you on the river which offers 130 km of navigable waterways, for 24 euros per day. You can then bivouac respectfully on the route or find campsites or lodges, the Canoë Dordogne team will be there to advise you.

      Everything is included in the rental price, the boat, vest, container, insurance and transport.
      Trust the Canoë Dordogne team to show you the most beautiful spots!

    This was a highlight of our trip. The service was ok, not overly friendly, but less surly than some reviews make out. I guess if your lugging canoes back and forth all day in the heat, you wouldn't be up for a chat to the hundreds of tourists that pass through. This place is not the cheapest, but you got the back rests and waterproof container included, and it was a route that suited us. It is worth booking ahead of time if there is a large group of you, or you may miss out. The river is stunning, and gentle. There will be places that get very shallow, so watch the water and pick your path or you will get a bumpy ride. There are plenty of beaches to pull up on though not as many snack stops as I expected, so take plenty with you. You are not timed, but have to be back for the last bus at 7pm so don't miss it! The route times are more a guide as how long it would take if you paddled the whole way with no stops. Tip: Take a shorter route and really relax with lots of stops..Or take a longer one and get paddling!

    Great canoe experience on the beautiful Dordogne. The girl who helped us spoke excellent English and we were under way in no time at all. Life jackets and waterproof buckets were also supplied.

    Lovely canoe along the dordogne river today with amazing views and lovely scenery. Quite pricey at €18 per person for 9km, but certainly worth it!
