La Banne d'Ordanche is the remnant of a volcano that rises to 1,515 meters above sea level. Frozen in the Pleistocene period two million years ago, its neck-shaped summit offers a spectacular panorama over the Dordogne valley.

You will find an orientation table which indicates the three volcanic massifs of the Regional Natural Park of the Volcanoes of Auvergne: the Dômes chain, the Monts Dore chain and the Cantalien massif.
