Le Puy de Dôme is a high historical site, many magnificent castles to visit (Chazeron, Chateaugay, Veygoux, Tournoël, Dauphin, Blot Rocher.
The towns of Riom and Clermont-Ferrand have museums and old stones to discover while strolling through the narrow streets. Don't miss the Michelin Museum.
Geology is paradise! La Grotte de Pierre à Volvic, the Vulcania amusement park, the open-air volcano of Lemptégy, the Gour de Tazenat, the petrifying fountains of St Nectaire, the panoramic train of Puy de Dôme, as well as the 80 volcanoes surrounding the puppy chain of the Auvergne volcanoes regional nature park. The waters are also very famous: Volvic with its springs (its factory is worth a visit).
Châtel-Guyon, like all spa towns, has a casino and a very nice theatre with a poster worthy of a Parisian theatre.
The magnificent roads of Auvergne are a treat for bikers.
To recuperate from all these activities, try the typical Auvergne dishes such as truffade, potato pâté, potato pie, potato potato, omelette with herbs, cold meats and countless delicious cheeses (Cantal, St Nectaire, Gaperon, Bleu d' Auvergne). All topped with a good Auvergne wine (with moderation)
We look forward to welcoming you for a weekend or for your next holiday.
