Located at the heart of France’s hexagonal territory, Auvergne is a sparsely populated land of volcanic plateaus and large valleys. Unlike the Alps to the east or the Pyrénées to the southwest, its highest peaks reach only 6,000 feet above sea level and are free of snow in summer. The local authorities? efforts to safeguard the environment have made Auvergne one of the last protected zones in Europe.
Before going to Auvergne, familiarize yourself with its history and its gastronomy.

They created the towns of Angers and Le Mans as well as many agricultural estates. Christianity gained the ascendancy in 313 and the following centuries witnessed a series of invasions, notably the Vikings in the 9th century.

The Loire and its tributaries provide salmon, trout, carp, shad and pike, served grilled in a salt crust, or with a beurre nantais (butter, shallots and wine sauce). The Atlantic coast spoils visitors with its superb shellfish: oysters, mussels, prawns, lobsters and clams can be savored at any time of day––and with any sauce––in the restaurants fronting local fishing ports. Around Guérande, the ocean offers its fleur de sel, an all-natural unprocessed salt that gives a new meaning to seasoning.
