Located in the heart of France, gateway to Auvergne and Roannais, border between the Pays d'Oc and the Pays d'Oïl, between the middle mountains, the UNESCO-listed spa town of Vichy and the PAL park, the Pays de Lapalisse is an ideal destination to live a territory and shine on the essential sites of Auvergne.

Here, alongside the famous Nationale 7 Historique, the castle and its Vérités, old stones and outdoor activities rub shoulders (ideal for strolling through its landscapes and along its waterways), ancestral art and technology, visits and immersive and playful experiences, where you will almost be the hero.

A territory that can be explored on foot, by bike, on horseback, by car or even from the air!

Lapalisse, two labels at your service: "Most Beautiful Detours in France" and "Village Etape".
