Le Somat Forest Trail

Highlight • Trail

A very beautiful walk with lots of paths and trails in the undergrowth. No particular difficulties. However, be careful of two descents with rolling stones. We did this route the day after a storm and some places were muddy. I recommend this outing.

From this gravel road, numerous puys are visible. These are approximately 80 extinct volcanoes that stretch from north to south over more than 32 kilometers and form the Chaîne des Puys. Such a high concentration is unique in Europe.

Such a high concentration is unique in Europe. From here, you can see the Puy de Dôme and the Parioux, among others.
