Camping Paradis Vallée du Lot

Passing in front of Camping Paradis Vallée du Lot is the Lot Valley Veloroute, snaking through spectacularly scenic countryside along the banks of the Lot river for 160 kilometres from Aiguillon to Cahors. Both Pujols and Villeneuve-sur-Lot are popular stops on the route; from Villeneuve, it's about 70 kilometres to the end of the path at Cahors. If you don't want to cycle, you can stroll or take the bus to Pujols, two kilometres away, and from there to Villeneuve, two kilometres from Pujols. At Pujols, enter the village via the St Nicholas archway for views over Villeneuve, the Lot river and the countryside; at Villeneuve, see the 14th-century Porte de Paris, shop on the Rue de Paris and get arty at the town's art museum, housed in the old Gajac Mill. For more activities, a waterpark with waterslides is 200 metres from the site, and horse riding (five kilometres), a golf course (15 kilometres) and canoe trips on the Lot river (20 kilometres) are all within reach. Several hiking paths are also nearby. Within driving distance, historic buildings nearby include Agen Cathedral (25 kilometres), Château de Bonaguil (30 kilometres) and Château de Biron (35 kilometres).
