Chemin des Quirous

Highlight • Other

As this walk is not a loop it might be challenging to get back to where you started. In summer there is a bus shuttle you can take from Cheylade to Dienne (with a stop-over on the Col de Serre). Like that you can leave your car in Cheylade, use the transport to get to Dienne and then walk back!! For more information see here: laregionvoustransporte.fr/media/2917/download?inline=inline

Puy de Niermont

Highlight • Summit

With its 1,620 meters above sea level, the Puy de Niermont is the roof of the Limont plateau.

From its summit, a scenic view opens up to those who climb it. To the south, you can observe the Puy Mary and to the north, the Puy de Sancy.

In good weather, its sides are very popular with paragliders in the region.
