Passing by the Chartreuse de Bonnefoy in Le Béage, you reach Lake Issarlès, a volcanic maar with crystal-clear waters. In summer, why not stop for a refreshing swim? The route then leads you to Lake Lapalisse and the charming village of Sainte-Eulalie, where only 3.8 miles (6 km) remain to complete the loop.
