CANOE RENTAL WITH FEELOUT near EXCIDEUIL, IN THE GREEN PÉRIGORD

Discover the natural beauty of the Périgord Vert by canoe

Feelout offers canoe rentals between Périgord Vert and Périgord Blanc, just a few minutes from Excideuil, and 25 minutes from Périgueux, a charming village located in the Dordogne department. This activity offers a unique opportunity to explore the Isle River (between Coulaures and Savignac les églises), which winds through lush, unspoiled landscapes. The river, calm and accessible, is ideal for a getaway with family or friends. With courses suitable for all levels, everyone can enjoy a relaxing moment in the heart of nature.

Feelout offers several canoeing routes suitable for everyone, whether it's a few hours outing or a full day. The three routes offered are:

• Coulaures - Mayac: a 6 km journey, which takes around 2 hours, perfect for a first experience of canoe rental.
• Coulaures - Savignac-les-Églises: this 9 km route, lasting 2.5 to 3 hours, offers more time to admire the surrounding landscapes.
• Verdeney - Savignac-les-Églises: a 12 km route, to be completed in 3h30 to 4h, ideal for those who want a prolonged immersion in the Périgord nature.

An experience that can be adapted to suit your needs

At Feelout, each canoe experience is flexible according to the preferences and level of each participant. The courses vary in difficulty, allowing everyone to find their own pace. Frequent stops along the river allow you to rest, picnic or simply enjoy the calm and freshness of the water.

Feelout's canoes come in a variety of configurations: single kayaks for those who prefer to paddle alone, or two-seater canoes (with a third seat option for children under 12 in the middle), perfect for sharing the experience with two or three people. Whatever the choice, each boat is designed to offer stability and safety, even for beginners.

Additional activities for total immersion in the Périgord

In addition to canoe rentals, Feelout also offers mountain bike and electric mountain bike rentals as well as guided electric mountain bike (E-MTB) tours. These tours, guided by Pablo, a state-certified instructor, allow you to discover the Périgord Vert from a different angle, along picturesque trails suitable for all levels.

VTTAE hikes are available in several options:

• 2.5 hour outings: ideal for a quick and exotic discovery of the surroundings of Excideuil.
• Full days: for total immersion, combining fun activities and discovery of local treasures.

These hikes can be adapted according to your desires: sporty, relaxing or focused on history and local heritage. The VTTAE allows you to manage the effort while accessing the most beautiful trails thanks to the different assistance modes.

For a complete experience, Feelout offers a combined day of mountain biking and canoeing. After a morning spent exploring the trails by bike, participants can cool off with a canoe trip down the Isle River. This package also includes a picnic made with local products, for a moment of conviviality in the heart of nature.
