Route description

A long, easy walk between the wild, unspoilt plateaus of La Bade and Champ Griaud.

This is where Auvergne’s vineyards have survived, as evidenced by the many plots still in use and the astonishing cellar district at Châteaugay. A route that offers great views over the town and surrounding mountains.

Start : Place Ballofy, Blanzat, direction “Les Mauvaises” / place du Général Charles-de-Gaulle, Châteaugay
