From Clermont Cathedral to Vulcania
Description
Clermont-Vulcania is a great challenge, offering a fascinating progression from the Clermont basin to the volcanoes of the Chaîne des Puys.

Departure: Clermont-Ferrand Cathedral, Place de la Victoire, direction "Durtol" / Durtol, direction "Vulcania".
Alternatively, take the special bus from Clermont or Royat up to Vulcania and walk back down.
