Walking Dordogne

 We are extremely excited with the launch of a new, exciting and unique tour ” Going Underground”
We have spent 2 years exploring the caves, and beyond. “Going Underground” is NOT a “Potholing” adventure, but an adventure for the hikers that want to experience another world underground.
These caves, chambers and tunnels have been used for 1000′s of years, and they played an extremely important role during the Second World  War, where they were used by the French Resistance.

This adventure is suitable for most people, but requires a high level of fitness, the ability to clamber, and not  claustrophobic.
