Paddle along the Vézère and you'll discover rolling, wooded and verdant landscapes. You'll also pass a number of villages lying on their banks or perched on promontories. Castles, churches, houses with pale stone and slate roofs and old bridges will enhance your peaceful cruise. You can also choose to paddle down the river in the company of a guide, who will tell you stories of water and church towers between two strokes of the oar. Once upon a time...
