From the famous Puy de Dôme and the high summits of the Cantal to the gorges of the Loire and the abbeys of the Haute-Loire, this is a walking destination of extraordinary variety and character.Written by Rachel Crolla and Carl McKeating, this guidebook describes 42 day walks ranging from 2 to 16km (1 to 10 miles) and taking 1 to 6 hours, organised across five distinct areas of the Auvergne.
