During the All Saints' Day holidays, come and discover or rediscover unexpected places in Velay! Take advantage of the autumn colours to go for a walk, take some time to recharge your batteries and enjoy a delicious meal. Enjoy an immersive experience with the Hôtel des Lumières and Terre de Géants or visit the latest temporary exhibition "À travers champs" at the Musée Crozatier. Here are some ideas for a great autumn holiday.

Hike in the fall

With family, friends or even alone, set off to discover hidden treasures in the Velay region. A walk in the forest (hunting for mushrooms), along the Loire or around a lake, you will definitely find what you are looking for on the "Rando Haute-Loire" mobile app.

Also, don't hesitate to hike a few kilometers on the famous trails of Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle ou Stevenson. Our good plan: the daily shuttles from La Malle Postale operate until October 31st 🙂

TEST THE VIA VELAY

Whether on foot or by bike, enjoy the Via Velay for a beautiful outing amidst the autumn colours. Accessible to all (2% gradient), this former railway line connects Le Puy-en-Velay to Landos over 35 kilometres.

You will pass through typical villages, forests, 5 tunnels and a viaduct. Don't miss the opportunity to admire our natural sites near the greenway: the Beaume Waterfall and Lake Bouchet.

Visit our monuments

Thanks to the "Velay Pass Card," you can visit more monuments while paying less! Here are the 5 monuments included in this pass: the Notre-Dame de France statue , the cathedral cloister , the Saint-Michel d'Aiguilhe rock , the Polignac fortress , and the Crozatier Museum, which includes its temporary exhibition in partnership with the Centre Pompidou!

Take some time for yourself

Come and relax and recharge in one of our partner massage centers: Le Mont Anis in Puy-en-Velay or Ma Belle Campagne in Saint-Geneys-Près-Saint-Paulien.

Facial or body massages and hammam for some and hydromassage baths, sauna and relaxation lounge for others, you will find a formula to help you relax.
