Link between the Centre nature Quatre Vents and Place Jean Payre in Courpière (circuit no. 2)
Start: Centre nature des 4 vents (Aubusson d'Auvergne)
Several circuits of the mountain bike base start from Courpière (Place Jean Payre), and this waymarked link lets you reach Courpière by the track that comes down through the slopes of Puissauve, then along the communal road of Les Taillades, before crossing the Lasdonnas park to reach Place Jean Payre. On the way back, you pass along the boulevards that skirt the medieval quarters of the village before crossing the bridge over the Dore. The route then heads due north towards the Château de la Barge before climbing back up to the Quatre Vents plateau along the least steep tracks and communal roads in the area.
