Gorgeous natural place with a wild beauty. Let's be taken by his secret. The Livradois-Forez Regional Nature Park offers untouched landscapes that feel worlds away from civilization. With 800 meters of elevation change, you'll discover hidden valleys, ancient forests, and pristine meadows. The park's protected status ensures this wild character remains preserved for future generations to explore and cherish.

We went there and tried the biggest tyrolienne in France. It was simply great! Just try it. 800 meters long and 110 meters high! The adrenaline rush is incredible as you soar over the stunning Livradois-Forez landscape. The views of the regional park from that height are breathtaking. Well worth the access fee for this unique adventure experience in the Puy-de-Dôme region.

Plenty of deer and possibly boar spotted throughout the park - wildlife enthusiasts will love it here. The 800m elevation gain provides excellent viewpoints for animal observation. Always good on hot days as the forested areas offer natural shade and cooler temperatures. The diverse ecosystems of Livradois-Forez make it perfect for nature photography and peaceful walks away from crowds.
