We often get requests from people keen to try a cycling and/or walking holiday, but put off by the idea of having to pack and move hotels every couple of days. So now you don’t have to! Here, you stay at the same hotel throughout and, each day, you choose whether to walk, cycle, explore or just relax by the pool depending on how you feel. It’s completely flexible and, as complimentary Headwater bikes are provided for your exclusive use throughout your stay, there’s no need to decide anything in advance.

We have chosen the *** Hotel Segalière in Cajarc, nestled between the cliffs in the heart of the Lot Valley, as your base for the week. There are just 24 recently refurbished rooms - all equipped with bath and shower, satellite TV and direct dial telephone – and the superb 20m x 12m pool, surrounded by

1.5 hectares of well-maintained gardens, is an oasis of peace and tranquillity. The meals here are excellent too with the menu pensionnaire relying on fresh, regional produce - the carpaccio de canard comes particularly recommended! A short 5 minute stroll will bring you to the village if you fancy a pre-dinner apéritif: wander round the little cobbled alleys and you’ll find the remains of the ramparts and château, a C13 church and the Maison de l'Herbrardie with its impressive gothic windows.

During the day, you can choose to follow our suggested walking or cycling routes and the tourist office can also help arrange canoe/kayak trips. Horse riding is available nearby. The local bus travels up and down the valley (as far as Cahors to the west, and Figeac/Capdenac to the east) or, if you’ve got your car with you (recommended), Rocamadour, Padirac, Najac and the Aveyron Gorges are all easily accessible.
