Chemin des Muletiers
Highlight • Other
Its steep slope is approached by a path made of about twenty switchbacks. If the trail is not technical, it remains challenging. During the summer, bring enough water to keep you hydrated.

Chemin des Muletiers
Highlight (Segment) • Trail
Its wide and not very technical trail does not seem complicated at first glance. But the 365 meters of elevation gain in two kilometers will put your legs to the test, especially as the slope steepens as you go.
Fortunately, the bends that make it up make the climb less insurmountable. Fifteen numbered turns separate the Col de Ceyssat at the foot and the summit of the volcano. Most of them offer magnificent views of the south of the Puys chain. You will feel like a cyclist as you climb a legendary pass in the Tour de France!
