Summer activiites
In the summer there is a plan d'Eau swimming and fishing lake 1km from the house + three large lakes nearby. The walking, mountain biking & road cycling in the area are all superb. There is also a golf course & a brilliant high ropes course in Le Mont Dore. La Bourboule (2km away) has a large park with amazing playgrounds, crazy golf, train rides etc for children.
Winter & Skiing
As the review on mountainpassions.com recently described the ski area,'the Auvergne...offers one unique attraction: the chance to ski down the flanks of an extinct volcano in the startling landscapes of the Parc Régional des Volcans.'
The skiing is surprisingly extensive (85km in total) with Le Mont Dore on the north facing slopes linked to Superbesse on the sunnier side. Sledging, cross country skiing, snow shoeing and dog-sledding are all available in Murat le Quaire. Nearby Le Mont Dore also offers ice-skating & ten pin bowling.
