Small waterfall along the trail. Parking nearby.

A delightful, surprisingly well-maintained and interesting village with a museum-geographical trail exploring the history of this place, namely the birthplace of cheese: Bleu d’Auvergne. There's a small museum with a well-made 50-minute animation program—you'll need four 1-euro coins, but it's worth it if you understand French. You'll be guided past interesting spots, including the cellars where the first cheeses were aged. The Bleu et du Sang trail is 700 meters long and surprisingly enjoyable—though it's in French. The village also features some really cool street art by Iggy, good parking, restrooms, a restaurant, and plenty of benches. Several good walking trails depart from here, and be aware that ALL the street names are on red tablets, created by a single artist—perhaps in clay? I thought this was a lovely village and highly recommend it!

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.

There are several theories about the earlier use of the Tra, which are listed on an information board at this location along with further information.

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/

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

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.
