The highest railway viaduct in France crossing the Sioule valley, above the river, located in Les Ancizes-Comps.

In Auvergnat, "les fades" means "the fairies". At 132.50 metres high, the Viaduc des Fades is one of the highest railway viaducts in France. It was built between 1901 and 1909. Until 2007, it served as a link between Clermont and Montluçon. Today, the line is closed. The viaduct overlooks the Fades dam, providing one of the most spectacular views of the Sioule valley. Closed for a long time, it can now be crossed by electric velorail (booking a few days in advance recommended).

The Viaduc des Fades is an architectural monument perched 132.50 meters above the Sioule valley. Once linking Clermont to Montluçon, it now offers a timeless adventure by electric velorail. Passage through three tunnels, one of which is over 300 meters long, adds a spectacular touch to this two-hour ride. Offering a breathtaking view of the Fades dam, this viaduct is perfect for nature and history lovers. It's the promise of a memorable experience, but don't forget to book in advance!

Currently closed to traffic trains, the viaduct Tasteless is an imposing work that dominates the Combrailles, built in typical black stone corner, the Volvic stone. The setting is ideal for hiking
