Lac Chambon Beach

Highlight • Lake

Lac Chambon is a lake of volcanic origin. Between its remarkable view of the Monts Dore and its shallow depth (only four meters), swimming becomes very pleasant.

As a good walker, you need an hour to hike around the lake. If you prefer water sports, go directly to the leisure base.

On the beach, taverns, ice cream parlors and restaurants are also open during the high season.

Chautignat

Highlight • Other

Taking a step back from Chautignat allows you to admire the emblematic Murol castle perched on its rocky spur in a different way.

Saint-Nectaire

Highlight • Historical Site

Notre Dame du Mont Cornadore or Church of Saint-Nectaire is celebrated among other things for its treasure and its 103 capitals, in particular those of the choir forming one of the most remarkable sets of Romanesque sculpture in Auvergne.
These historiated capitals were like an open book offering the faithful a form of monumental catechism.
Saint-Nectaire is also well known for its cheese which takes the same name as the village. It is to my taste one of the best French cheeses.
