The Puy de Manzagol

The Puy de Manzagol offers a view over the Monts d'Auvergne and the Triouzoune lake.This is a geological curiosity since it was formed in the Tertiary era at the same time as the Monts du Cantal. Indeed, the formation of Puy Mary caused vibration and, by pressure, basalt would have risen to this weakened place through a crack, creating this "small" puy.
