Lake Montcineyre

Highlight • Lake

The Puy de Montcineyre, at the time of its formation, blocked the course of a river, and formed this large lake in the shape of a crescent.

Although it was not formed during a volcanic explosion, its depth of 20 meters is significant.

Lake Pavin

Highlight • Lake

Lac Pavin is one of the emblems of Sancy. Its depth reaches almost 100 meters and its circular shape attests to its explosive volcanic origin. With its dark and mysterious waters, it is the subject of many legends.
Due to its volcanic nature and its meromictic character (the surface waters do not mix with the waters of the depths themselves loaded with toxic gas), it has also long been the subject of numerous studies and scientific hypotheses which can sometimes explain the legends.
