La Tour-d'Auvergne is a very old village which finds its foundations on a basalt peak, the vestige of a volcanic flow from the great volcano that was the Sancy massif. In the town you can admire the basalt columns to the left of the church. These are geological formations that result from the solidification of a basaltic flow shortly after its emission, which attests to the proximity of the volcanic crater.

The volcano cabins

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Les Cabanes des Volcans is a residential leisure park offering unusual accommodations. In this case, it consists of six cabins nestled in the treetops. If you decide to shorten your route, this place can be a good idea for an overnight stay.

Highlight • Other

Nice place, view of the Sancy Mountains. The best part was the small hotel with an open bar. Delicious cake and the best cappuccino yet.

Saint-Genès-Champespe

Highlight • Religious Site

If you want to enjoy stunning views of the village of Saint-Genès-Champespe and its surroundings, you can hike up to the Saint-Sébastien church, which is perched on a hill overlooking the village. Built in 1907, the church is decorated with a bronze sculpture of a Salers cow, a local breed. From the church you can enjoy a panoramic view of the forests, lakes and mountains of the Auvergne region. You can also see Lake Laspialade and Lake Crégut, two magnificent lakes. It is an ideal place to admire the natural beauty and cultural heritage of Saint-Genès-Champespe.

It rained overnight and early in the morning. A bit of drizzle at the start, too little for rain gear, too much for the mood.🤔😜
Anyway, there was still an uphill climb at the start, followed by a downhill descent. Relatively little traffic.
Shopping in the village, baguette, 🍷, and fruit. No chance tomorrow. Then came a stretch of busy …
