Departure from Aydat (Puy-de-Dôme)
Circular route starting from the edge of Lake Aydat, climbing slightly to enjoy views of the Chaîne des Puys and the Sancy massif. Pass through hamlets with a few traditional houses and the Pierre Longue. This menhir owes its "original" name, compared to the multitude of other "standing stones", to the fact that it was lying down before being raised by merciful locals. That said, "menhir" in Breton means "long stone"!
