Very nice little chapel

Saint-Privat-d'Allier is a pretty village which offers magnificent views of the Allier gorges. Its ruined castle and church stand proudly on the granite plateau of Margeride.

If possible, arrive via the Calvary for an even more impressive arrival at this magnificent village.

From the parking lot of the Coubon train station, a little warm-up by going down the greenway to Brives Charensac where there is a small crossing of the Loire then join the road to get back to the transcévenole. There, the path is a natural path if I may say so where you will find stones but not smooth ground as you can find on the greenways. There are about 4 and a half km of this stone path. Then after going through a tunnel towards Lantriac, the path is much more passable. After there is a fork on the right, we cross a road and take a small path for 150 to 200 m which can be cluttered with vegetation, but it is passable. After a climb, we come to a path where there are stones. The climb can be difficult if you do not have electric assistance, or a low level of fitness. Then we join a road for 150 to 200 m before turning left and enjoying a phenomenal panorama. Then a descent where you have to take your time, a crossing of a very pleasant little village and a very smooth path but in which there can be difficulties on the ground. After we join a charming little road before making a small climb to join a small path for a few hundred meters around Arsac. Then the descent on Coubon, and the climb to join the departure car park. Be careful the climb is steep at times.

This church is located on the first stage of the Chemin de Saint-Jacques, just past Le Puy-en-Velay, on the way to Saint-Privat-d'Allier. The name of Saint Christopher, to whom the church is dedicated, translates as "Christ-bearer." According to legend, he was a giant man who carried people across a river. One day, a small child called to him, and he carried it on his shoulders to the other side. Amazingly, the child grew heavier and heavier, and he said he felt as if the weight of the whole world rested on his shoulders. Then the child revealed himself to him as Jesus Christ, Savior and Redeemer of the world.

The place emerged as a settlement around a castle from the 13th century, which has been largely destroyed since the 17th century. The village developed mainly due to its location on the Via Podiensis and offers several hostels. It is also an important base for white water sports enthusiasts on the Allier River.
