Route description

What a symbol, and what a challenge for any good walker : to “do” the Giant of the Domes in just a few hours from the heart of the city !

A handful of kilometers and a long but gradual ascent, with a return trip by bus most of the year. So give it a try and you’ll be able to say : I did it !

Departure point : Clermont Cathedral, Place de la Victoire, direction “Chamalières” / Square de Verdun, Chamalières(…)
