The Route of Spa Towns of the Massif Central

                                                  


Presentation

Created in 1998 under the impetus of the Massif Central DATAR (Inter-ministerial delegation for regional development and regional attractiveness), the Route of Spa Towns of the Massif Central is an inter-communal association that brings together 18 Spa Towns spread out across 5 regions: Bourbon-l’Archambault, La Bourboule, replica rolex watches Châteauneufles-Bains, Châtel-Guyon, Chaudes-Aigues, Le Mont-Dore, Néris-les-Bains, Royat-Chamalières, Saint-Nectaire, Vichy (Auvergne), Bourbon-Lancy, Saint-Honoré-les-Bains (Bourgogne), Evaux-les-Bains (Limousin), Meyras/ Neyrac-les-Bains, Montrond-les-Bains, Saint Laurent-les-Bains, Vals-les-Bains (Rhône-Alpes), Cransac-les-Thermes (Midi-Pyrénées). Starting with the concept that the thermal towns in the Massif Central needed to diversify their economic activity that was too dependent on medical thermal activity alone, the Association has chosen as principal objective of changing the tourist image of the Thermal Towns.
