Regional nature parks
Nature has certainly been generous in the Auvergne, in the form of two outstanding regional nature parks. Two marvellous havens of peace and freedom including rare animal species and a range of flora which is as dense and varied as it is abundant.

When you travel here, your journey really has a meaning. A stay in the Auvergne provides a chance to experience life in the region, along with its history, its culture and its inhabitants.
Tourism here is based on a number of key values, including environmental quality, responsibility and community-mindedness, openness and a willingness to share.

An impressive area with an unspoiled natural setting and one well worth a visit. (...)
