Perigord has a mild climate all year round, so you can enjoy its various features in any season: you’ll love fall, with its chestnuts, walnuts and mushrooms and the yellow and orange foliage. The aroma of truffles will herald winter and its magical landscapes, covered with moss and lichens. Spring is the ideal time to discover Sarlat’s excellent Gothic and Renaissance town center, as well as the regional gastronomic specialities of its markets. Summer is the time for the rock’s warm color and the river’s sinuous flow. And you can’t miss the thrill of swimming with the dordogne fish.
