RE: Volcanoes, Chateaux and Sunflowers galore in Auvergne, France

in #travel5 years ago

ehy dear @saltycat , great post! with your beautiful photos and your detailed descriptions you made us visit a part of france that is perhaps among the least known! how is the climate there? what time of year did you go? it also seems to me that you have really visited many places and museums: what is the time of a good visit without stress? congratulations on your curie vote

Hi thanks for your questions. We went in July/August and the weather was late twenties/early thirties nearly everyday and full of sunshine. However, it was holiday time for the French too. I think June or September are probably ideal months if you can visit then for a less busy time. As for without stress - all holidays have some stress elements but I found the French countryside to be a rather laid back affair. The busiest places by far where the beaches by the crater lakes.

thank you very much for your advice! August is always to be avoided, this is now clear :-)) keep on travel
