Pertus Pass (1,309 m)

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Superb climb from Saint-Julien de Jordanne.

A beautiful garden restaurant invites you to rest under shady trees before you go up to the Puy Mary pass at 1783m. We actually wanted to go to the CG Puy Mary campsite here, but it was still closed due to a change of ownership. So we decided to master the pass. No difficulty as it steadily increases by only around 3-5%.

Jordanne gorges

Highlight • Other

This small village is worth a stop to enjoy the natural site of the refreshing gorges of the Jordanne. A very well laid out path with wooden footbridges allows you to walk along the river.

Château d'Oyez

Highlight • Castle

The Château d'Oyez is a mixture of different buildings: you will find the architectural remains of an old castle, but also a feudal mound and a seigniorial manor. Strategically located, it made it possible to monitor the Jordanne valley. It is now a private residence but a visit can be organized there in July and August, on the occasion of an exhibition.

Fabrègues Castle

Highlight • Other

Located in the Jordanne valley, the Château de Fabrègues dates back to the 10th century, even though it was rebuilt in the 19th century. Its classic French style is remarkable and, although unfortunately it cannot be visited, it is worth taking a short detour to admire its facade.

Aurillac

Highlight • Other

The international street theater festival which takes place every year in the last weeks of August has made this beautiful town in Cantal famous. Aurillac is also a museum of art and archeology, a very contemporary museum of volcanoes and an ideal horse center for horse riding enthusiasts.

Cycle Route V74 – The Great Volcano Crossing by Bike

Highlight • Cycleway

at Aurilac we reach the cycle route V74. It climbs steadily, at the beginning at the little river La Jour up into the Massif Cantale. It's not much traffic now in June. In terms of landscape, the route is a pleasure.

Lake des Graves

Highlight • Other

Located in the heart of the Jordanne valley, Lac des Graves displays an exceptional and preserved setting. It's an ideal place for a walk or nap by the water!
