It is a granite chaos. It takes its name from the shape of these large stones. They would have served as a refuge for peasants who wanted to escape the Russian countryside under Napoleon. On site, an orientation table gives you information to appreciate the panorama. Access via the coniferous forest also offers a splendid setting.

Located on the north face of Puy des Trois Cornes, the statue of Saint-Valéric reminds us that this Saint from Limousin established his hermitage on this mountain in the 6th century. A pilgrimage is held there every July. Near the statue, you can see a water source.
