Le Puy du Pariou

Reviewed By albertv1527 - Utrecht, The Netherlands

Highly recommend hike. There are multiple paths leading to the top of the Puy de Pariou. If you take the path that goes counter clockwise around the base of the puy you will be treated on a varied landscape with some clearings that allow for very nice panoramas. After 2,5 km (the last stretch slanting up) you will reach stairs that spiral around the puy all the way to its top. Those are 500+ steps. From halfway up the stairs you can see more mountains in the distant south (i.e. Puy de Sancy  & co). On the top you have a magnificent panorama over the nearby volcanoes and into the caldera. Can very well be combined with going up neighbouring Puy de Goules. In fact they share the car park (Parking des Goules). If you only go up one volcanoe, choose Pariou, it's the better experience. If you do both, save Pariou for last.
