Le Puy-en-Velay is a town of volcanic pitons: the Saint-Michel d'Aiguilhe chapel sits on one, the statue of Notre-Dame de France on the Corneille rock, and Notre-Dame cathedral overlooks the old town from its hill. The Saint-Jean baptistery, the Fontaine du Plot and the Fontaine Crozatier set the rhythm of the streets. Here, the slope decides everything: a trail game becomes a climb, and a reward at every landing. No quest exists yet in Le Puy-en-Velay; the first route will show these pitons differently.

Three possible quests in Le Puy-en-Velay

Cathedral stairway, a climb in stages

A group route that climbs the streets leading to Notre-Dame cathedral, with a riddle at each landing. Teams count, observe and find their bearings to continue.

Fountains of Le Puy, a children's trail

For children, a search for the Plot and Crozatier fountains, with clues about animals, mascarons and patterns, in a limited area, away from the steepest climbs.

Aiguilhe piton, the challenge of the curious

For a group of friends, a trail game of views: from an observation point, you spot the Saint-Michel d'Aiguilhe chapel and the Corneille rock, then work out the final route. A tourist office or a pilgrims' association could find it useful.
