The Auvergne is a volcanic, mountainous area, with steep-sided valleys and rocky peaks. It includes the ski resort of Super Besse. The streams at the bottom of the valleys have a tendency to get dammed up, giving rise to deep lakes, and we went to see one: Lake Pavin. It has a visitor centre with restaurant and bar (natch) and a track around the lake that you can walk.
We had Wednesday afternoon off on our accordion course, so we went to see it and walked around it.
It looks beautiful :-)
