Le gour de Tazenat

Guidebook with maps/step-by-step :

Étape 1 : From the parking lot, take the path up towards the gour. Go right along the lake to the beach. Go right along the edge of the wood to the road, leaving the shortcut on your left.

Étape 2 : Turn right, then left through the village of Les Forges, to a crossroads of four paths after the pond.

Étape 3 : Turn left up to a T-junction. Turn left and follow the road to the D17 (view of the Morge valley and the Combrailles). Follow it to the left as far as the bend. Leave the D17 and continue straight ahead on the tarmac road. Pass the first crossroads of four paths and continue on this track to another crossroads.

Étape 4 : Take the track on the left (view of the Gour de Tazenat, the Chaîne des Puys and the Combrailles). After the parking lot, turn left (in the wrong direction) to go down to the lakeside. Turn right after the bar to get back to the start.
