Must-sees in Padirac
A visit to the chasm is of course Padirac’s star attraction, but the village itself is also well worth a visit. Small and peaceful, it offers some lovely walks around the surrounding countryside, with pleasant views over the Causses du Quercy.
Remember to book your entrance to the chasm in advance, especially during the summer months: the site is very busy, and slots sell out fast.
There’s also a modern reception area with store, snack bar and shaded picnic areas.

Padirac’s location is ideal for exploring the wonders of the Lot. Just a few minutes away, you can discover Rocamadour, the famous sacred city perched on its cliff, or the nearby listed villages ofAutoire, Loubressac and Carennac.
Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy the hiking trails around the chasm, or take a canoe trip down the Dordogne. The natural setting is ideal for walks, contemplation and gentle discovery.
Between caves, cliffs, rivers and medieval villages, the Padirac region is the perfect playground for an active and varied vacation.
