Treat yourself to a floating interlude in the Lot valley

What could be more unusual, relaxing and in touch with nature than to cruise the Lot valley in a cabin boat?

This opportunity is open to all, old sea dogs and river navigation novices alike.

Ideal for cocooning, napping on the boat, cruising up to Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, admiring nature in its raw state, the cliffs along the Lot... strolling, taking your time and sleeping in the cabin.

In the heart of the Parc naturel des Causses de Quercy, you'll discover the flora and fauna along the river.

You can moor your boat off Ganil Island and spend the night under the stars.

You can also discover Saint-Cirq-Lapopie and its rocky outcrop, the towpath carved into the rock, the Ganil manual lock and its lock keeper, the Château des Anglais and the multi-colored limestone cliffs...

The menu also includes a hearty breakfast, as well as a quality "home-made basket", "Quercy meal", "Avocado salmon meal", "Beer Saucisson Rillettes", "Champagne Foie Gras" aperitifs...

Not to mention a range of services such as Véronique's massage, the romantic pack, hikes, the two-seater Packraft or the Californian electric bike.

In addition to my Parenthèse Flottante, Lot Navigation, the parent company, offers two other services: pleasure boating and daily and weekly rental boats.

Boats from 1 to 4 cabins... with astonishing comfort and equipment.

Guide du Routard Vallée du Lot

Le pays Vallée du Lot et Bastides offre une diversité insoupçonnée de paysages, de vallons, de cours d’eau et de sites sauvages, une agriculture bien vivante et une richesse architecturale qui réserve des découvertes culturelles séduisantes.
Le long de la vallée, s’étendent les vergers de prune d’ente ; les plantations de noisetiers s’alignent en bataillons bien ordonnés ; tandis que sur les coteaux et au-delà, quelques vignobles produisent du bon vin pour accompagner les productions de ce territoire gâté par la nature.
Amoureux du tourisme vert, prenez le temps de musarder en suivant les itinéraires à la découverte de beaux villages médiévaux, bastides, châteaux et points de vue de toute beauté. On comprend mieux pourquoi Stendhal surnomma ce petit coin du Sud-Ouest la « Toscane française »…
