Villeneuve d'Allier

Highlight • Other

Located on the banks of the Allier, this small town has a lot of charm. In addition to the beautiful views of the river and the castle of Saint-Ilpize, it has several businesses, including a hotel-restaurant. In the village, a giant flea market awaits you. The past of Val d'Allier is an atypical boutique which conceals many treasures.

Blot Cliffs

Highlight • Natural Monument

View of the Blot cliffs from the road (very pleasant by bike, and little traffic). These cliffs are called basalt columns. They are made of basalt, volcanic rock made from cooled magma.

Chilhac

Highlight • Other

This village sits on top of a rocky outcrop. This cliff is the result of a lava flow dated 1.6 million years ago. The basalt organs found in the town are remarkable. They measure more than seven meters in height.

This natural curiosity is the result of an unusual volcanic phenomenon. It was a slow cooling that allowed the lava to solidify. It then takes on this characteristic colonnade appearance.

Lavoûte-Chilhac Village and Stone Bridge

Highlight • Settlement

Lavoûte-Chilhac is one of the most beautiful villages in France. Located in the Allier gorges, it has adapted to its environment. The village is split into two parts on either side of the river. Enjoy the traboules, its priory or simply the view of the Allier!
