Puy-de-Dôme in winter
Wild Auvergne. Cross-country rather than downhill skiing, snowshoes at sunrise, soup by the fire. And open-air baths at the hot springs.
Weather
Dry cold in the lowlands (-5 to 5°C), snow on the Sancy/Cantal/Mézenc. Variable ski conditions.
The département in brief
Volcanoes, city, hiking: Auvergne for every mood.
⚠️ Good to know: The Christmas/February high season is tight everywhere. Book well ahead or shift your dates.
