Clermont-Ferrand is a city you run with volcanoes on the horizon. In town, the Jardin Lecoq and Parc de Montjuzet offer green loops and a panorama over the Chaîne des Puys; a few minutes away, the Puy de Dôme and its neighbours unfold a unique, UNESCO-listed trail playground. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the Montjuzet hills, the Puy de Dôme ascent, the Gergovie plateau, the volcanic trails of the Chaîne des Puys. Not a standard circuit: one hour with a Clermontois who knows the right elevation for your level and the right tempo, in town or on the volcanoes.

Get the free guideYour guide is a Clermontois who loves to run and knows both the city and the volcanoes. They pick the Jardin Lecoq to cruise on the flat or the Puy de Dôme and Chaîne des Puys for elevation and views, depending on your level and the season. Many of our guides here are running-club members, trail runners and Clermont Auvergne University students who live the volcanoes every day.
