While
staying at the hotel Le Ponant, you can discover the cultural and historical past of the city of Pradelles and admire its architecture:
Overlooking the valley of the Haut Allier, this former stronghold linking the Auvergne to the Languedoc was a very important step for trade to the south and pilgrims from Puy en Velay en route to Saint Gilles.
Witnesses of this period the noble houses with arcades and high
facades are erected against the gusts of Cevennes.
They have passed generations of travelers, sometimes famous, to the star of the Scottish writer
Robert Louis Stevenson who gave his name to this path became the GR 70.
Le Ponant: 'a balcony on the nature' ...
Our hotel **
sits on the heights of Pradelles, classified "most beautiful villages of France".
The Ponant dominates the Gorges de l'Allier and offers an exceptional panorama of La Margeride and Lake Naussac.
Step of choice for lovers of hiking but also for those looking for a holiday combining relaxation and nature. Many activities possible between sports and leisure.
The establishment is located on a major axis linking the south of the Massif Central to the Mediterranean. Anchored in the valley of the High Allier appreciated for its gorges and the navigation in canoe-kayak, it is close to the Mount Gerbier de Jonc where the Loire takes its source.
At 30 km from the cathedral of Puy en Velay, the medieval city of Pradelles is also the place of passage of
great hiking trails, including the famous GR 70 or "Chemin de Stevenson" of which we are a partner
and the GR 700 or "Regordane Way".
The hotel is part of the relays of the association "On the way to Robert Louis Stevenson".
