A very beautiful panoramic ride up with the train. Extremely family friendly in all details, from prices to displays and other accommodations. Very interesting for young and old. Spacious views, we loved it. What a beautiful place! Train was down for maintenance so had to climb so it took abot 2 1/2 hours to get to the top! It was worth it. Just know for one week out of the year in March everything is closed for annual maintenance. Great view of Clermont and the chain of Volcanoes. If the day is clear and sunny, you will have the chance to meet a lot of people doing paragliding. At the top you find a restaurant and also a picnic area. If you visit the region this is a must! Well worth the trek to the top, fantastic 360° views. Great spot for a picnic. Sturdy footwear needed as there is loose stones underfoot in parts. If you don't feel like the climb there's a narrow gauge railway that will bring you to the top also. Very nice view from the top. You can take the train going up and it takes about 20 minutes one way with nice views. There’s an ancient Roman temple (Temple of Mercury) at the top with a museum (fun for kids as there are little gadgets they can play with). Lots of people doing skydiving at the mountain top. It’s not a difficult hike after you get off the train—all the paths are well-paved. It can get very windy at the top so I recommend wearing warm-ish clothes. Stunning views. You can either walk up(1 hour 30 min walk) or get the train up for 18 euro each(return ticket). I got the train. Even though when I went it was foggy majority of the time, I could see some great every now and again so it must be amazing when the weather is clearer. Well worth the trip up, dog friendly and great Very nice ascension to the top of the Puy de Dôme. The hike is moderately difficult, but the along the way and at the top are worth it!
