La chaîne des puys

Highlight • Other

Magnificent course without any particular difficulty except for a rapid descent with ruts before St Bonnet d'Orcival and a good climb at the exit of Orcival, but in VAE it's fun...

Café-Lac

for a recovery of energy, I strongly recommend a stop. The welcome is just exceptional and then I had the best known omelet there.

Lake Servières

Highlight • Lake

Servières Lake is a maar, a crater lake nestled at an altitude of 1,200 meters. It is the ideal place for many walks in an exceptional natural setting!

Lac de la Cassière

Much smaller but quieter and less touristy than Lake Aydat, great picnic tables.
