살구‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪15‬개의 천연기념물

Small town with church and campsite, bar unfortunately closed on Whit Monday.

A very beautiful, little-known lake

Rather rolling gravel track (there is a small part of bitumen in the middle) which offers a magnificent panorama of the summer pastures with the Monts du Cantal on the horizon. Access from the col de chamaroux is a little more technical in gravel but it is quite playable. The reward at the top is a postcard landscape!

A picnic table at the entrance to the hamlet, then overlooking the waterfall. You can access the waterfall on foot only, but there is a very nice view from above too.

Magnificent little lake where François Mitterrand went every year to taste the truffade.

Saint-Bonnet-de-Condat is a typical rural town of Cézalliers. Behind its bucolic appearance, you can observe the surprising geology that overlooks the village. In others, to the north of the town, a cliff of volcanic organs rises to the sky. Despite its hundred inhabitants, you will find a grocery store, a bar and a campsite.

In the heart of the Cézalliers mountains, the Saillant waterfall is a magnificent waterfall of about twenty meters. The Bonjon stream which rises there passes over organs and thus forms a waterfall with a spectacular flow.

In one of my old hiking diaries, I wrote about Lac Chauvet: “At the end of the afternoon, my feet soak in the soft and cool waters of Lac Chauvet. Impressive in its strict circularity, the lake is the culmination of a maar; in other words, the meeting underground of a magma and a water table. As a good soloist, I try to observe the rare movements of the lake which could betray the presence of fish. According to the signs planted near the one and only pontoon of the body of water, trout, carp and even salmon would have taken up residence there”.
