Auberge d'Aijean

Highlight • Mountain Hut

After overcoming the Puy Mary and a wonderful descent, the Auberge d`Aijean is halfway down the "downhill run" near Gandilhon, a beautifully renovated farmstead, very tastefully furnished, with a fantastic garden (unobstructed view up to Puy Mary and down into the valley) and a very good menu for dinner. We could safely store the bikes.

Buron d'Eylac Refuge

Highlight • Mountain Hut

It is a stop where you can take water (brought to the site by volunteers) and see the internal architecture of an old buron.

It is possible to spend the night at the Buron d'Eylac (dormitory or possibility of pitching the tent for a small financial contribution) in a magnificent setting, near the Puy Mary.

During the winter, given the altitude (1,400 meters), access is only possible by snowshoes or cross-country skis from the Col de Serre (2.5 kilometers).

Pas de Peyrol Pass (1,589 m)

Highlight • Mountain Pass

At an altitude of 1,588 meters, Pas de Peyrol is located between Puy Mary and Puy de la Tourte. It is known to be the highest road pass in the Massif Central and is worth it, because the last few kilometers have high percentages. There you can admire Puy Mary, which peaks at an altitude of 1,783 meters. It is one of the peaks of the Cantal mountains. It is easily recognizable with its pyramidal silhouette.

Sartre Waterfall

Highlight • Other

Barely hidden away from the road to Puy Mary, the Cascade du Sartre is located on the edge of the segment between Cheylade and Le Sergier, then Enchaniers. A few hundred meters from the "Lac des Cascades", this waterfall is magical because of its discretion, which forces us to go looking for it like wonder hunters. A pedestrian path only allows you to approach it, on which you have to be careful. The path is not really the most passable for our youngest or our oldest, but that does not prevent access to a superb view of the entire waterfall.
