What to Expect
The countryside is pleasantly rich and lush, full of orchards and corn fields. Arrive at the right time of year, as I did, and you’ll find endless stacks of colourful corn cobs and plenty of fruit and nut growing, including sumptuous looking figs. The overall effect is like cycling though one limitless, beautifully tended, garden.
Cycling in the Lot Valley is from D ‘ Aiguillon and around the Cahors region is a relaxing break from the norm. Over 160kms you will have the chance to taste the local wines, eat delicious fruit from the orchards and visit the medieval villages called ” bastides ” with their fortified doors.
You will cycle small quiet roads with enjoyable terrain. Among the memorable sites are the Pujols Tower in Villeneuve-sur-Lot , the Basilica of Our Lady of Peyragude in Penne d’Agenais , Bonaguil Castle in Fumel or the Valentré Bridge in Cahors.
The Lot Valley is also a great discovery of local produce including plum orchards and famous vineyards of the Cahors region .
