The Pathmaster Guides provide all walkers with detailed route descriptions to the most popular walking areas of Europe. Centered around the main towns in each region, the books all give detailed advice on accommodations, transportation, money, clothing, and food and wine. The mountains of the Auvergne are one of the best walking regions of France, well known for their beauty and ease of access from across Europe. A fine network of paths make walking enjoyable—whether for short rambles, or more challenging cross-country routes. The 30 circular walks in this book are based around Murat, Vic-sur-Cere, Thiezac, Saint Flour, La Bourboule, Saint-Nectaire, Besse-en-Chandesse, and Orcival.
