Description
This circuit offers an amazing view of the highest volcano in France, the Puy de Sancy. Rising to an altitude of 1,885 metres, this summit is the highest point of the Massif Central. The two streams, the Dore and the Dogne originate here, and their confluence forms the Dordogne. On the way back from the tour, on the road to Ussel, the site of Les Roches also offers a stunning 360° panoramic view over the Monts d'Auvergne and the Montagne Limousine.
