The best things to see and do in the Auvergne Volcanoes Regional Natural Park
Perfect for getting away from it all, the Auvergne Volcanoes Regional Natural Park is the largest natural park in France. It covers four volcanic massifs: the Monts du Cantal, the Chaîne des Puys, Mont Dore and Cézallier, as well as the granite plateau of Artense.
With an altitude of between 400 and 1,885 m (at Plomb du Cantal), this rugged, majestic landscape is perfect for lovers of mountain sports. Hike up the ridges, try rock climbing or hike via ferrata. You'll also find mountain bike trails and adrenaline-pumping adventure courses in places like Sancy in Super Besse. They are all surrounded by some of the wildest nature in France.
If you're up for some watersports, you'll also find plenty of opportunities in the Auvergne volcanoes. On the region's rivers and lakes, you can try fishing, white water rafting, swimming or sailing. Lakes like Landie, Chambon, Pavin and Guéry are ideal for a day on the water.
Make sure you sample some of the local produce while you're in the Auvergne Volcanoes Natural Park. Relax on the terrace of your chalet or mobile home with an aperitif made from gentian, a flower that grows freely in this area. Cheers!
