The Auvergne volcanoes are one of the most remarkable landscapes in France. This region, located in the heart of the Massif Central, is famous for its perfectly preserved volcanic cones, its vast plains and its crystal-clear lakes.
The Auvergne has been the scene of intense volcanic activity for millions of years. This activity has shaped the landscape we know today, creating varied and spectacular reliefs. The volcanoes of Auvergne are not all extinct: some are still considered dormant volcanoes.
