The Combrailles stretch across a vast granite plateau where water is everywhere.
This 47 km trail around the Fades-Besserve reservoir (400 ha) is all about water, the river Sioule flowing through deep gorges and winding meanders.
From Les Ancizes, you’ll cross the reservoir to Les Fades, where you’ll see the highest railway viaduct in Europe, rising 133 m above the Sioule.
– The Sioule river.
– The Fades dam and viaduct.
– The Sioule valley, where the Fades-Besserve lake (400 hectares) is located, has 15 kilometres of banks between the renowned sites of the Chartreuse de Port-Sainte-Marie and the Fades viaduct.
All year round.
