    • Canoe or kayak trip on the Vézère from then Montignac or Saint-Léon-sur-Vézère

      Kanoak is a small family structure that rents canoes and kayaks for trips on the water along the Vézère. 2 nautical bases are available for a departure from Montignac or Saint-Léon-sur-Vézère. Just choose from one of the 3 routes available in St-Léon (generally easier) and one of the 4 routes from Montignac (for those who want up to 20 km of river walk).

      The Vézère Valley is a perfect place for discovering canoeing with family or friends. The Vézère is a calm river, which makes pretty meanders (we say cingles in the region), between the villages. There are beautiful castles (Château de Losse, Château de Belcayre, Château de Clérans in Saint-Léon), impressive cliffs like La Roque Saint-Christophe and green landscapes all around you. Small beaches allow you to stop and admire these beauties, take a break, swim or have a picnic. The Vézère is easy to navigate, the Kanoak team will give you all the advice you need for good practice and a peaceful descent. You will leave with good equipment, a canoe or kayak, a paddle per person and a waterproof container for your personal effects.

    Lovely gentle kayak from Montignac to St Leon. Very highly recommended. The guys running the hire service were very helpful, and happy to converse in English thanks to our limited French language ability. Boats and safety equipment were really good, the pricing reasonable and very flexible around the return bus trip. Merci beacoup!

    Friendly, local, family run business. They have a good selection of both kayaks and canoes so you can easily choose (other providers were pushing the canoes only). The kayak from Montignac to Saint Leon is beautiful and (in my opinion) the views of the castles and overhanging cliffs was better than the Dordogne river. If you have the time, stop for lunch in Saint Leon. Highly recommended

    Friendly staff and an all round great day. I'd recommend going to the 20Km stretch!
