Parc Fenestre

Highlight • Forest

Created in 1874, Fenestre Park is one of the oldest botanical parks in France. Located on the left bank of the Dordogne, the park is 850 meters above sea level!

The garden is home to nearly 250 varieties of different plants. At the entrance, you will not be able to miss the four giant sequoias which measure 45 meters in height and 10 meters in diameter.

For children, playgrounds are available. Note that some games are free and others are paid.

Charlannes Cable Car

Highlight • Other

Although the operation of the Charlannes cable car has ceased since 2012, the eponymous plateau remains a pretty belvedere. At the foot of the latter, the town of La Bourboule stretches pleasantly over the Dordogne valley.

Charlannes Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The Charlannes climb allows you to reach the Charlannes plateau, formerly accessible by a funicular (from 1902 to 1955). It offers lovely views of La Bourboule and runs along its upper part along a rock wall from which a mini waterfall flows.

Fairies' Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

La Roche des Fées is a charming loop of about 45 minutes, with multiple panoramas.

Located above La Bourboule, the view of the Haute Dordogne valley becomes splendid.

Also, this family walk is punctuated by sculpted rocks that contain the fantastic world of creatures from the volcanoes of Auvergne.

Les Grands Thermes

Highlight • Other

The Grands Thermes are a reference thermal establishment in Auvergne, located in the city center of La Bourboule.

The building, whose construction was completed in 1877, is seen as a true jewel of the Belle Époque. Major renovations are planned from 2023, but the center will still be closed.
