Welcome to Greendordogne Bike: the bike hire and cycling tour base in the Dordogne. We are located in the village of Coux-et-Bigaroque in the Perigord Noir, near the confluence of the rivers Dordogne and Vezere. The best way to explore this beautiful region is by bicycle.

We rent:

- 30-speed Trek carbon/aluminium road bikes
- 24-speed Cannondale hybrid/touring bikes
- 30-speed Cannondale carbon road bikes
- 6 and 18-speed Lapierre kids bikes

These lightweight, high performance bikes are ideal for the country roads in the Perigord. Check out our Bike Rental page for details.

The best cycling conditions are to be found in the Dordogne: quiet country roads to suit all levels of riding, beautiful scenery, and one of the cleanest rivers in Europe to cool off in... La Dordogne. This region is a treasure of natural beauty and  is exceptionally rich in prehistory sites and historical points of interest.
Weather conditions here are great for riding from April to November.
