Puy de Sancy

The Puy de Sancy is the highest peak in central France at 1885 m. Like most of the peaks here, it constitutes the remains of an extinct volcano. From the cable car station at 1780 meters there is a wooden walkway to the top, which you walk down as part of this trail. There is a panoramic viewpoint with orientation boards. The top was shrouded in clouds on the day of this walk, so I illustrated this waypoint with some photos taken earlier in the week when I took the cable car.

At the mountain station of the Téléphérique there is a restaurant. The photos with this waypoint were taken earlier in the week when I took the téléphérique to the top.
