View of the Sioule

Really old bridge paved with coble stones.

Beautiful old bridge. The bridge's base is completely paved with cobblestones.

Keep your eyes peeled at the edge of the Etang Grand. This Sensitive Natural Area (ENS) is home to many nesting and migratory birds 🦅

A very well-preserved example of medieval military architecture. This castle was built in the 12th century by Robert Dauphin, Count of Auvergne, to defend the Sioule bridge and was enlarged in the 15th century by Gilbert III de LaFayette, Field Marshal of France. The keep and six towers are still preserved. The castle is inhabited by the descendants of the Moré de Pontgibaud family, who have owned it since 1756. At the end of the 19th century, the interior was restored in a harmonious style by Count Caesar III. Website: http://www.chateaudauphin.com

The Fades dam is the largest dam in the Sioule valley. This impressive structure, built in 1968, holds up to 69 million cubic meters of water and powers a hydroelectric power station. From the top of the dam, you can admire the view of the lake and the surrounding mountains. Along the way, you may encounter wild animals, such as deer, foxes or birds of prey.
