Cabre Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col de Cabre at an altitude of 1,526 meters allows you to pass from the Santoire valley to that of the Jordanne. It offers magnificent views of these valleys.

It is also crossed by the GR 4 and 400 (Tour of the Cantal mountains) from Puy Bataillouse to Puy de Peyre-Arse.

Roland's Breach

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Brèche de Roland is located on the long ridge that connects Puy Mary to Peyre-Arse.

Its name was given to it in reference to the breach of the same name in the Pyrenees.

This breach located at an altitude of 1,647 meters is a delicate passage of the GR 4. Made up of alternating ash beds and scoriaceous strata, it can become slippery in rainy weather.

Puy Mary Summit

Highlight • Summit

Despite an altitude of 1,783 meters, Puy Mary is not the highest peak in Cantal but it is undoubtedly the most famous. Classified as a “Grand Site de France”, and with an almost perfect pyramid shape, it is the vestige of the largest volcano in Europe with its 70 kilometers in diameter.
