Magnificent view of Lake Guery

The Col de Guéry, located in the heart of the Auvergne region, offers a picturesque mountain pass experience amidst the volcanic landscapes of the Massif Central. At an altitude of approximately 1,267 metres, the pass offers stunning views of Lake Guéry below, the highest lake in Auvergne. The region is known for its tranquil beauty, with rolling meadows, dramatic volcanic peaks and forests that change colour with the seasons. Nearby Roche Sanadoire and Roche Tuilière add to the spectacular scenery, making it a perfect stop on your hike.

The Banne d'Ordanche is a 1515 m high volcanic peak in the shape of a neck-shaped crater head. It solidified about 2 million years ago before being planed down by glaciers (https://www.sancy.com/) The views in all directions are phenomenal and the summit is easy to reach - the last part is comfortably via wooden stairs. Due to several nearby car parks, you are rarely alone here in good weather.

At just over 1480m, the Puy Loup offers a great view in all directions. The small refuge on the summit used to be a tower that belonged to a gliding base that was located on the ridge at the beginning of the 20th century: 'Centre national de vol sans moteur de LA BANNE D'ORDANCHE', https://www.anciens-aerodromes.com/

There is a viewing platform from which you can have a beautiful view of the waterfall. The 'Ruisseau des Morts du Guéry' drains a large part of the plateau du Guéry. This waterfall can be impressive. It is also the main tributary of the Lac du Guéry.

La Banne d'Ordanche is a peak of volcanic origin in the Dore Mountains in the Puy-de-Dôme department. It culminates at an altitude of 1,512 m and overlooks the town of La Bourboule. Easily accessible from the Col de Guéry, there is a wonderful 360° panoramic view (orientation table above) of the Puys chain, the Puy de Sancy, but also of the Cantal mountains. Source: Wikipedia

There is a rest area at the lake and a small snack bar not far away.
