Beaulieu - Camping l'Air du Temps

Highlight • Rest Area

The air du temps campsite in Beaulieu is very pleasant because it is located on the edge of the Dordogne, which in this precise place forms the lake of Bort-les-Orgues. From the campsite you will have a beautiful view of the Château de Val. One kilometer further towards the village you will find the Auberge de Beaulieu which has a very good reputation.

Bort-les-Orgues Dam

Highlight • Other

The Bort dam is a structure 120 meters high and 390 meters long, straddling the municipalities of Bort and Lanobre, and creating a reservoir of more than 10 km2. Built between 1942 and 1952, it was then a veritable concrete juggernaut and today it remains one of the largest dams in France (and still the third in mainland France if we look at the quantity of water retained by a concrete construction). It is also the first and largest reservoir in the hydroelectric system of the Dordogne valley.
