The Auvergne is a rugged region in central France. It's a great place to go if you like hiking and other outdoor activities. On a small surface you will find awe-inspiring non-active volcanoes, lakes, rivers and forests.

The capital Clermont-Ferrand has many historic sights and is well worth a visit. It is also a good base to arrange the rest of your trip.
