Great walk, without too many difficulties.

A charming village boasting beautiful architecture and remarkable buildings. Some establishments offer a relaxing and pleasing setting for a refreshing drink on a terrace during an outing. The Allier River, which gives its name to the village, is a must-see.

The birthplace of General Lafayette (who played a crucial role in the American War of Independence) is here in a tiny Auvergne village.

This village sits on top of a rocky outcrop. This cliff is the result of a lava flow dated 1.6 million years ago. The basalt organs found in the town are remarkable. They measure more than seven meters in height. This natural curiosity is the result of an unusual volcanic phenomenon. It was a slow cooling that allowed the lava to solidify. It then takes on this characteristic colonnade appearance.

Very cute little village, well renovated and maintained, with a nice set up, both on the cliffs with incredible "basaltic columns", and down by the river. There is a nice bar & restaurant, l'Embuscade, where you need to book ahead if you wanna eat there!

This castle is definitely worth a visit. From this ancient fortress, you will have an incredible view of the village of Saint-Ilpize and Villeneuve d'Allier. Its strategic position allowed the Dauphins of Auvergne to monitor the Allier gorges.

If the ruins are not of incredible interest to visit, the breathtaking view of the valley from the castle is well worth the detour and the few drops of sweat on the climb.

If in Auvergne there are several personalities who have marked history, the Marquis de Lafayette is one of the most important. Both a great craftsman in the American Revolutionary War and a leading figure during the French Revolution, he was born and spent his childhood here. If history buffs choose to visit the castle, the more athletic can take advantage of the nature around the castle to run in the footsteps of the childhood of the “hero of two worlds”.
