The La Monne River winds through the Gorges de la Monne, offering a scenic hiking experience along its clear, rushing waters. You will be charmed by the gentle sound of the river flowing over rocks and small waterfalls, surrounded by lush vegetation. The trail takes you close to the water's edge, where you can enjoy peaceful spots to take a break or even to cool off on a hot day.

Surrounded by dense forests and steep cliffs, Lake Pavin is distinguished by its deep blue waters that reflect the surrounding vegetation. This enchanting setting, accessible by a trail, combines perfectly with breathtaking views of the lake and the surrounding mountains.

Simply magnificent !! Accessible to almost everyone. A vision of Auvergne that changes from the high peaks.

In the entire hiking region it can be quite warm and strenuous in summer. We therefore recommend taking enough water with you.

Lake Pavin is a marvel, yet the name Pavin from which it comes means appalling. Its circular shape leaves no doubt as to its origin: a gigantic volcanic explosion. When we look at its calm waters, it is difficult to imagine how dreadful its creation some 6,900 years ago was. The explosion that formed it was indeed very violent: traces of this maar were found even in the sediments of Lake Geneva in Switzerland.

We tend to believe that the Dent de la Rancune is this small peak hooked like a canine and looking like the Matterhorn. Well no, it's actually the block that stands to its right. It is a dyke, that is to say an old column of lava that erosion has uncovered from the ground. This is how this wall was erected, which makes climbers happy. It offers about forty routes, including one rated 8+. Notice to amateurs!
