    Hiking

    Mézères is a remarkable village and should appear in my opinion in the list of the most beautiful villages of France. The inhabitants knew how to make marvelous use of the volcanic environment of their country. The houses are built of phonolites and other volcanic stones, and instead of tiles to cover the roofs, there are lauzes (large and heavy flat stones).

    On the town you will also find a basalt organ, proof of the intense geological activity, 12 million years ago.
