Guéry Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col de Guéry, located in the heart of the Auvergne region, offers a picturesque mountain pass experience amidst the volcanic landscapes of the Massif Central. At an altitude of approximately 1,267 metres, the pass offers stunning views of Lake Guéry below, the highest lake in Auvergne. The region is known for its tranquil beauty, with rolling meadows, dramatic volcanic peaks and forests that change colour with the seasons. Nearby Roche Sanadoire and Roche Tuilière add to the spectacular scenery, making it a perfect stop on your hike.

Lac de Guéry

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

Lake Guéry is a mountain lake of volcanic origin located in the Dore mountains, in the heart of the Massif Central. It is the highest of the Auvergne lakes. Surrounded by mountain pastures, it is located in the Puy-de-Dôme department, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes administrative region, eight kilometers from the town center of the commune of Mont-Dore, towards Clermont-Ferrand. Since 2021, the lake has been the property of the Puy-de-Dôme departmental council. This lake exists thanks to a basaltic lava flow that created a dam. Lake Guéry is the highest lake in Auvergne at an altitude of 1250m.

Voissières Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The Voissière waterfall has its source in a small stream near Chambon des Neiges. It joins by the waterfall, the Couze de Chaudefour which then feeds the Lac Chambon. The waterfall remains mysterious, partly hidden by vegetation.

Access to the site:
From the town of Chambon sur Lac, take the D637 for about 2.5 km towards the Chaudefour Valley Nature Reserve. After the hamlet of Voissière on the road to the right is the waterfall. It is visible from the road. The path leading to the foot of the waterfall is quite narrow and covered with vegetation making it difficult to access.
