On the route of the GTMC, a section of path gives you access to an exceptional panorama of Mont Chamaroux on one side, and the summer pastures of Cézaillier on the other.
The access from the Col de Chamaroux is a bit rocky (it is nevertheless suitable for gravel and travel bikes provided you have solid tyres). The descent to Prades is very rolling.

Incredible Monts du Cézallier: a breathtaking view in all directions. It's worth it, but what a reward!

Rather rolling gravel track (there is a small part of bitumen in the middle) which offers a magnificent panorama of the summer pastures with the Monts du Cantal on the horizon. Access from the col de chamaroux is a little more technical in gravel but it is quite playable. The reward at the top is a postcard landscape!
