The emblematic Puy Mary pyramid (1,787 m) proudly dominates the puys, domes and rocky spurs that make up the largest volcano in Europe (2,700 km² / -13 to -2 million years). Reshaped by water and ice, the breathtaking panorama created by this fabulous erosion surprises the walker, especially at Puy Mary where 7 glacial valleys radiate around the summit. These exceptional landscapes have been protected since 1985 by the creation of the "Monts du Cantal classified site", with a perimeter of approximately 10,000 ha, which extends in a star shape along the crests from Puy Mary. After several years of commitment to the landscape, Puy Mary obtained the Grand Site de France label in 2012, and it was renewed in 2019. In 2021, the perimeter of the Grand Site will extend over 40,000 hectares and 17 municipalities.

Now restored and fully furnished, Chateau du Sailhant offers an historic tour through the garden/court, entry hall, dining room, salon, great hall, bedrooms, library, kitchen and chapel. Visits from April 1 to October 31. Chateau du Sailhant is a thousand year old chateau-fort located in the mountainous Auvergne region of central France. It stands on a dramatic triangular volcanic spur with one hundred-foot perpendicular cliffs on three sides overlooking a mystical sixty-foot waterfall that drops into a crater-lake formed from a prehistoric volcano. Accessible only on one moated side, the site has been occupied from the most remote of times.
