루아르‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

A superb November morning, with a changing mist.

Very beautiful view of the Rhône valley

숨 막힐 듯 아름다운 풍경과 야생의 풍경! 정말 대단한 자연의 광경이에요, 와우! 오베르뉴에서 절대 놓쳐서는 안 될 장소 중 하나입니다.

great ride but remember to charge the batteries before leaving.....

The Puy de Montoncel is an extinct volcano, culminating at an altitude of 1,287 meters. In a notebook, I wrote about it: "Its slopes are covered with a majestic thorn forest, with an archaic, sometimes primal beauty. The rare paths that cut through the woods wind along the slopes, in the shade of the green giants. These paths are the veins of the forest. They are tunnels of abundant oxygen. From meadows to groves, I feel as if I'm floating on an ocean of nature. At the summit of the puy, I find a plateau devoid of trees as if blown by the wind, and topped with a thick thatch. A huge iron cross rises into the sky, looking mischievously at the wind turbines on the neighboring ridges, which come to life with the sound of the air." I sit down on a wide carpet of green grass, a veritable velvet to rest my body after this first, sweaty climb. I light a pipe and cheerfully observe the Auvergne volcanoes that swell the horizon. Their supple, rounded shapes give the impression of observing distant hills. Puy-de-Dôme, Monts Dore, Puy-de-Sancy, I amuse myself by guessing the roofs I was clambering over the previous year.

Dam with a beautiful history and architecture, the view is worth it

Any self-respecting cyclist must, after reaching the Col de l'Oeillon, continue to the Crêt de l'Oeillon, the true summit and final objective of this climb!

A breathtaking view
