Mont-Dore

Tucked into the upper Dordogne valley beneath the Massif du Sancy, Mont-Dore is a town whose character is shaped by volcanic mountains and thermal springs. The Dordogne begins here, where the Dore and Dogne streams meet, before flowing west across central and southwestern France. Mont-Dore developed as a spa resort, and its imposing thermal baths remain a reminder of the town’s long association with hydrotherapy. Above the town rises Puy de Sancy, the highest summit in the Massif Central, while paths and ski infrastructure connect the resort to its highland surroundings.
