Bikepacking the length of France from the Channel to the Mediterranean sea – Day 5 Dordogne and Lot

Day 5 of our 800+ mile ride from the English Channel at Caen (La Manche) to Toulon on the Mediterranean sea in summer 2025. Follow us as we cross Haute Quercy on the fifth stage of our nine day trip right across beautiful France. This episode sees us cross the upper reaches of the rivers Dordogne and Cere, into Saint Cere and Figeac before hitting the river Lot as we meander our way up the valley and into the foothills of the Massif Central before we begin the big climb over into the Gorges du Tarn on day 6. Music courtesey of the Kings of Convenience and Ralph Myerz and the Jack Herren Band.
