From the Col de Ceyssat, at an altitude of 1,100 meters, you can climb to the summit of the Puy de Dôme on foot, reaching its peak at 1,465 meters above sea level. It is the highest summit in the Chaîne des Puys. A path with numerous steps will lead you there. The Puy de Dôme overlooks the city of Clermont-Ferrand. It will also give you a unique view of the other volcanoes. Another way to get there is to take a panoramic cable car located a little further west.

View of Roches Tuilière and Sanadoire

Highlight • Viewpoint

A great discovery by chance on a road of the passes planned towards Nice via Ventoux. First pass to stretch your legs. Easy with a plus at the end. A magnificent climb especially towards the end in parts with hairpin bends with this "sugar loaf" in sight...". Absolutely to do...

Lac de Guéry

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

Lake Guéry is a mountain lake of volcanic origin located in the Dore mountains, in the heart of the Massif Central. It is the highest of the Auvergne lakes. Surrounded by mountain pastures, it is located in the Puy-de-Dôme department, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes administrative region, eight kilometers from the town center of the commune of Mont-Dore, towards Clermont-Ferrand. Since 2021, the lake has been the property of the Puy-de-Dôme departmental council. This lake exists thanks to a basaltic lava flow that created a dam. Lake Guéry is the highest lake in Auvergne at an altitude of 1250m.
