Mont-Dore Thermal Baths

Highlight • Monument

Entirely renovated since 2015, the thermal baths of Mont-Dore are a place of serenity immersed in the heart of the charming city center.

Classified in the register of Historic Monuments, the buildings respond to a neo-Byzantine style. In the city of dark stones drawn from the volcanic mountains, the architecture stands out.

Capucin Funicular

Highlight • Other

Built in 1898 and listed as a Historic Monument, it is the oldest electric funicular in France. Climbing up to 1245m above sea level, it provides easy access to hiking trails, including the Sancy loop. Also take the time to admire the "Art Deco" style of the departure station as well as the operation of the engine room.

Capucin peak

Highlight • Summit

The Pic du Capucin is a volcanic dome that rises to 1,468 meters. It takes its name from the story of a hooded monk who wandered on the mountain.

A magnificent panoramic view of the Haute-Dordogne Valley and the Sancy awaits you at the summit.
