マルゲロンのおすすめツーリングルート

Old Bergerac: 800 years of history. Worth a visit.

A lovely, sporty descent through the forest. The terrain is quite uneven, dirt with furrows dug by water or the tires of small vehicles. A welcome little challenge.

Beautiful view of the vineyards and the Marquay mill.

Beautiful old castle on a hill overlooking the Dordogne.

A literary monument – albeit one that seems rather bizarre in the context of the story – has been erected by the Spanish author Miguel de CERVANTES to the windmills with which our ancestors used the energy of the wind centuries ago to move the large and heavy millstones: In one episode, his tragic novel hero Don Quixote, the "Knight of the Sorrowful Countenance", wants to defeat them in a duel, believing that he is battling against giants with four arms.

Beautiful route, definitely worth it!

Bergerac has a beautiful oldtown with plenty of historic buildings, worth seeing!
