Murol Castle

Murol Castle

This is the favorite attraction for kids (and adults alike). This fortified castle overlooks the entire valley and transports you right back to the Middle Ages. In the summer, the jousting shows and guided tours led by costumed guides are exceptionally well done. It’s so lively, you really feel like you’re there, and the view from the ramparts is superb.

Mont-Dore Adventures – Tree Climbing

Just 30 minutes from Le Clos Auvergnat, in the centuries-old Capucin Forest, Mont-Dore Aventures offers 8 courses suitable for everyone ages 3 and up: zip lines, suspension bridges, and thrills guaranteed for the whole family.
