Local attractions

Make the Camping Le Ventoulou reception your first port of call when considering what to see and do in the Lot and Dordogne valleys, as the team knows its stuff and can also offer discounts for some nearby activities. There's loads to see without having to drive too far: Rocamadour, Padirac, Figeac, Loubressac, Autoire and Carennac are all a short distance away, and the small and comely villages of Sarlat, Collonges La Rouge and St Cirq Lapopie are nearby. The area has heaps of natural countryside to explore too and – c'est France, after all – a diverse range of food and wine to get stuck into. Flea markets, pottery and craft fairs, night markets, fireworks, concerts, dances, a country festival and an opera festival all run in the summer season. Outdoorsy types can take their pick from many activities available locally, like trekking, mountaineering, horse riding, canoeing and kayaking, climbing, caving, abseiling, paragliding or diving. A fishing lake is less than 10 kilometres from the park, or you could fish in the Dordogne river less than 15 kilometres away.
