View of Riom in the Limagne plain, at the foot of the Puys chain.

The Abbey of Saint-Pierre Mozac is a former Cluniac monastery founded in the 7th century by Saint-Calmin, a nobleman who became a monk. The abbey is a remarkable example of Romanesque art, with its richly sculpted capitals, its crypt with ancient frescoes, and its treasure trove of relics and enamels.

You can stop there to take a nice break and appreciate the river flowing through the gorge and under the bridge.

The Saint-Amable basilica of Riom is the story of the construction of a church and a baptistery during the 5th century. Over the centuries, the building has been modified several times and thus offers an undeniable archaeological interest. After Clermont Cathedral, Saint-Amable is the largest building in the diocese of Clermont. The basilica has been listed as a historical monument since 1840.

Notre Dame de la Garde is a statue entirely carved in the stone of Volvic and which protects the city.

Superb view of Volvic and the surrounding area

The path is nice but on a mountain bike! The terrain is far too rough to talk about Gravel!

Monumental sculpture in Volvic stone. Starry crown on her head and outstretched arms facing the village, the Virgin protects the city. The statue is 5.5 meters high and the whole measures 9.56 meters.
