View of the Puy-de-Dôme

Highlight • Other

As is often the case, the trails at the foot of the puys alternate between pleasant forest paths and views of the Puys chain and the Puy de Dôme.

A very beautiful walk with lots of paths and trails in the undergrowth. No particular difficulties. However, be careful of two descents with rolling stones. We did this route the day after a storm and some places were muddy. I recommend this outing.

From this gravel road, numerous puys are visible. These are approximately 80 extinct volcanoes that stretch from north to south over more than 32 kilometers and form the Chaîne des Puys. Such a high concentration is unique in Europe.

Open since February 20, 2002, this amusement park has the educational mission of making known the fascinating world of volcanoes.

A fictional volcano has been created to give you the impression of entering the bowels of the Earth. There are more than thirty attractions within the park which is also intended to be fun.

Plaine des Boulies

Highlight • Natural

In this mostly wooded area, most of the views are offered by the summits of the puys. With its beautiful vegetation, this open plain at an altitude of around 1,000 meters allows you to run amidst a pleasant, open landscape. From here, you can see the puys des Gouttes and Chopine.
