Karting City Périgord Noir

In Journiac, in the Dordogne, Karting City Périgord Noir sets up its outdoor track in the deep Périgord countryside, halfway between Le Bugue and Les Eyzies. The site sits at the heart of the Périgord Noir : Vézère valley, limestone cliffs, truffle oak forests. It's an address regularly favoured by holidaymakers in regional gîtes and families on prehistoric site discovery stays.

The open-air layout offers a varied course in the open setting typical of the Périgord causse. Several kart engine sizes are available depending on driver profile, with entry-level models for kids and punchier versions for regulars chasing timed sessions. Conditions shift with Aquitaine weather : faster and drier in summer, more demanding on rainy autumn days. The site stays accessible for family initiation runs and regularly hosts birthday parties, stag and hen parties, and corporate seminars from the Périgueux basin.

Journiac is 30 minutes from Sarlat-la-Canéda, 25 from Périgueux, and an hour from Bergerac. The region offers plenty to extend the visit: Lascaux II and IV (the legendary prehistoric cave), Les Eyzies-de-Tayac and the Prehistory City, the Beynac castle, gabarres on the Dordogne, or a detour to Sarlat and its listed medieval centre. For Périgord Noir holidaymakers, it's a chance to alternate culture and adrenaline in deep Périgord forest, in a family atmosphere far from large urban structures.
