Take the D660 to CREYSSE (17th century chateau de Tiregand and formal gardens, Belle-Riva Centre) then to TUILIERES (fish lift, lock, canal) and continue on until LALINDE (bastide). Take the D31 to MAUZAC (Dordogne quayside, lock, gabares...) and carry on till TREMOLAT (panoramic view of bend in the river, St Hilaire’s Chapel). An optional detour can be made to St ALVERE (15th century castle ruins, truffle market (in season)). Cross the Dordogne River on the D31 to get to CALES before taking the D29 to BADEFOLS sur DORDOGNE and heading to MOLIERES (bastide) near St AVIT SENIEUR (12th century abbey, museum). The D26 detour to MONTRERRAND du PERIGORD (Romanesque chapel, medieval village) is well worth the effort. Turn back to BEAUMONT (bastide, 12th century church) before following the Couze valley (paper manufacturing) along the D660 past the chateau de BANNES (15th-17th century) till COUZE ST FRONT (paper mills).
The D37 will take you to LANQUAIS (14th -16th century chateau) then to MOULEYDIER. The D21 will take you via ST SAUVEUR to the N21 at LEMBRAS.

Either return to BERGERAC or head towards PERIGUEUX as far as DOUVILLE (castle ruins) then follow the D38 to BEAUREGARD ET BASSAC (bastide, standing stones), MONCLAR (medieval village, chateau) and CLERMONT de BEAUREGARD (medieval village, church, chateau...).
