The Dordogne, a region of Aquitaine, is the third most visited and third largest area of France. It’s the capital of the Dordogne ‘department’ (region) and its center is divine and like a film set with its misty romanticism. The expansive grounds border the river Dordogne in one of her many meandering ‘cingles’ (oxbow bends). Such an invitation to explore and perfect, I discovered, for a romantic circular walk past the local Château de Montfort. It’s minutes from La Roque-Gageac, the renowned gorgeous roadside village set in a limestone cliffside beneath a large rocky precipice bordering the Dordogne River.
