Things To Do

While La Combe du Pech offers you the perfect opportunity to just sit back, relax and take life a little more slowly, the Lot Valley can also offer you as wide a range of activities as you could possibly imagine.

If you feel the need to exert yourself during your stay in the Lot Valley then take your pick from a great selection of outdoor activities.

Cycling

The Lot Valley is a cyclist's paradise.

Follow the Lot as it winds it's way through the valley and discover any number of beautiful, historic and picturesque places along the way.

More than 10000km of tarmac road is at your disposal, so you have plenty of leeway to plan your itinerary, explore places of interest, visit monuments, go through typical local villages or just watch the thousand and one different facets or the area roll gently by.

The area is ideal for both beginners and experienced cyclists. There are no high mountain passes but the ascent from valley to causse sometimes requires a good level of fitness.
The footpaths and tracks in the Lot are excellent for mountain biking.
You can hire bikes in several places including Cahors, Montcup and Prayssac.
