Between crystal-clear waters and snow-capped peaks: nature in all its forms
During your field trips, treat your students to a breathtaking natural spectacle by exploring the region’s famous waterfalls, such as those in Volvic or the Sancy Massif. These sites serve as open-air laboratories for understanding the water cycle, the power of erosion, and the purity of volcanic springs. It’s a rejuvenating experience where the local biodiversity reveals itself along every trail.
But the adventure doesn’t end when the snow melts! In winter, Le Clos Auvergnat becomes the perfect base camp for discovering the joys of the mountains in the Mont-Dore resort. Just a few kilometers away, your classes can try their hand at winter sports: downhill skiing, snowshoeing, or workshops on mountain safety. Whether you’re exploring the mysteries of water or embarking on a winter sports adventure in Auvergne, our region offers a dynamic and educational setting all year round.
