The Livradois-Forez, ideally situated at the crossroads of major routes, invites you to extend your stay by exploring the treasures of neighbouring regions. Fancy some new discoveries? Why not take your adventure a little further afield?
Just a stone’s throw away, the Volcan de Lemptégy plunges you into the heart of a unique volcano, offering an immersive experience to help you better understand the unique geology of the Auvergne. For a trip back in time, visit the Musée archéologique de la bataille de Gergovie, a few kilometres from Clermont-Ferrand, where history comes to life in the land of Vercingetorix.
Looking for wellbeing? Take a diversion to Vichy, famous for its thermal springs and elegant promenades along the Allier. Further east, Le Puy-en-Velay awaits you with its architectural wonders, picturesque narrow streets and, above all, its emblematic role on the Pilgrim’s Way to Santiago de Compostela. A spiritual starting point for many pilgrims.
Nature lovers will not be outdone. Take a hot-air balloon ride over the majestic volcanoes of the Chaîne des Puys or meet the wild animals at the Auvergne Wildlife Park.
And why not round off your trip with a visit to Vulcania, the volcano theme park, or Le Pal, for an exciting family day out?
