Chateau at Beynac-et-Cazenac by Beausoleil
So many chateaux along this section of the Dordogne River. We've spent a couple months in the region and not seen all of them. Beynac is definitely one to put at the top of your list.

La Taverne des Remparts beside the Château by Beausoleil
We couldn't get a reservation at our chosen restaurant and this one had a interesting menu and a fabulous view of the Château so we went in. Good choice. They had good food, great views and a very pleasant staff.

View from Château de Beynac by Beausoleil
When you climb to the top, this is the view. Definitely worth the climb. You look up and down the Dordogne River and see a few other châteaux among other things.

Tapestry in Château de Beynac by Beausoleil
The advertisement is that you have a view of the Valley of Five Castles and on a clear day, this is true. You can stand on the ramparts and count them. It is also fun to visit them if you have the time. Beynac was once the castle of Richard the Lionheart and several movies have been made here. This is a 12th century fortress with many additions over the ensuing years.

Church at Château de Beynac, now the church for the town by Beausoleil
The church was formerly the church for the castle, separate from the lovely frescoed Oratory. It is now the Beynac village church and entered from below, not from the castle.

Château de Beynac seen as you drive to the higher parking lot. by Beausoleil
There is parking down in the village, parking at the small ecomusée and parking way up by the Château. When it's crowded, the top lot nearly always has room so we just head there to start. It seems like you are driving out into the country, not up to the castle, but keep following signs and you will arrive. The views are wonderful and it's a very short, level walk to the castle.

Driving through Beynac up to the Château by Beausoleil
As you drive into town on the D703, turn at the signpost to parking and plan on a long, winding drive. Be patient, you will arrive at the castle and there will be parking. There is also parking down in the town, but it is often full. If you can get a place, it's a Plus Beau Village of France so well worth walking through.

View of Beynac and the Château high above it. by Beausoleil
We drove through the village looking for parking, didn't find any so turned around and drove back through the other way. This is the view coming from Sarlat or La Roque Gageac. Either way you arrive, Beynac is a very picturesque village with a dramatic castle.

Approaching Beynac-et-Cazanac on the D703 by Beausoleil
You can see the huge castle on the hill a long time before you get there. This is in front of Domaine du Château de Monrecour which is a hotel-restaurant that also offers apartments. We've never stayed there, but the location is lovely, in the very picturesque Dordogne near several châteaux and caves and an easy drive to Sarlat.

Beynac-et-Cazenac - lower village along the Dordogne River by Beausoleil
Sign on a very pleasant restaurant on the Dorgogne River. We checked the menu and it looked excellent so we stopped there for lunch. You can watch all the activity on the river below you. Be sure to ask for a window seat or try the terrace if weather permits.

Beynac-et-Cazenac - a gabare waiting to go out on a tour by Beausoleil
There are several companies that offer trips along the Dordogne River in the flat-bottomed gabares. We have a favorite but all of them are educational and great fun. Despite hoards of people in gabares, kayaks and canoes, there is abundant wildlife along the river and the scenery can't be beat.

You walk out of the Château and there is a very pleasant restaurant awaiting you. There is a small upper village and a larger lower village. Both are worth a visit. This is a shop sign in the upper village.
