The Midi Corrézien is a warm and sunny region located in the south of the department, marking a dramatic transition from the Millevaches plateau. The landscape is characterized by fertile limestone hills, valleys carved by the Dordogne and Vézère rivers, and the omnipresence of red sandstone, visible in the buildings. Its history is rich, with a strong medieval influence, as evidenced by the fortified villages, and a tradition linked to the barges that once plied the Dordogne. The flora benefits from the southern influence, resulting in forests of chestnut, oak, and walnut trees, while the fauna is typical of the bocage countryside of southwestern France. This region offers a unique blend of the ruggedness of the Limousin and the gentleness of the Quercy.
