Coming to Puy de Dôme is a guarantee of taking a breath of fresh air between mountains and rivers. You will discover incredible landscapes, climb dormant volcanoes and practice many outdoor activities. In summer, in the beautiful season, you can go hiking, mountain biking, via ferrata, climbing, horseback riding, paragliding, hot air ballooning, or simply go to see the mountain lakes like Lake Chambon or Lake Pavin. As for winter, once the snow arrives, you can go downhill skiing on one of the 3 Sancy areas, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, dog sledding or simply build a snowman in front of your accommodation. You can also visit fortified castles like the Château de Murol or visit old fortified towns like Besse or spend a day at Mont Dore or Clermont-Ferrand to see this picturesque architecture made of black Volvic stone which is used to build the Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption Cathedral.
But Puy de Dôme is also an authentic gastronomy with delicious Auvergne cheeses such as St Nectaire, Cantal or Bleu d'Auvergne and must-try recipes such as truffade, a clever mix of mountain cheese and potatoes. And if you feel a little heavy after such a meal, don't hesitate to climb to the top of Puy de Dôme and its 1465 meters, the 360° panoramic view is simply magnificent.
