Auvergne

I'm Stéphane, your local Holidu host here in beautiful Auvergne, where the stunning landscapes and exhilarating outdoor experiences await you. From spring to autumn, I find Auvergne is perfect for both adventure and relaxation.

One of my favourite activities is exploring the historic site of Puy-en-Velay, especially if you're interested in the Camino de Santiago. The natural beauty of Le Mezenc is also ideal for hiking enthusiasts, offering remarkable views and trails.

  • Puy-en-Velay: An essential visit for history lovers and those seeking spiritual paths.
  • Le Mezenc: A must-explore for hiking and outdoor activities.

As for dining, I highly recommend trying our local delicacies at these fantastic restaurants:

  • La Distillerie in Puy-en-Velay: Perfect for a taste of local flavours.
  • L'Estempille at Saint Vidal: Offers exquisite cuisine in a charming setting.
  • La Lentilles Saucisses: Sample traditional dishes that showcase the region's produce.

If you visit in September, don't miss the Fête du Roi de l'Oiseau at Puy-en-Velay, a fascinating medieval festival with artists, markets, and vibrant spectacles. It's an experience that adds a unique cultural touch to your visit.

When it's time to bring a piece of Auvergne back home, I suggest buying green lentils from Puy-en-Velay, verbena, and some of our finest charcuterie. These make wonderful souvenirs and are always popular with my guests.

Remember, packing a cooler can be quite beneficial for taking home local products like cheese, meat, and charcuterie. And don't forget to bring sturdy walking shoes; they're essential for exploring the vast beauty and history of our region. Enjoy your stay in Auvergne!
