The Puy-en-Velay area has mastered the art of combining authentic heritage with the great outdoors.
A crossroads for long-distance hiking routes, Le Puy-en-Velay is best explored at a walker’s pace, along the famous Saint-Jacques, Stevenson and Régordane trails.
Le Puy-en-Velay and its surrounding area are also crossed by the Allier and the Loire, the last great wild rivers and waterways. The destination is ideal for switching off from everyday life, with something for everyone to recharge beside the white water, from hiking in the gorges and canoeing or kayaking to cycling, mountain biking and zip-lining.
Looking for fresh air and breathtaking panoramas? As you climb higher, the full scale of the Velay landscapes comes into view. This feeling is especially powerful at the summit of Mont Mézenc, reached after a climb to 1,753 metres.
