► Covid-19 INFORMATION - 2024. France is fully open for tourism, and hotels are operating normally. There are no restrictions on people entering France, but older visitors are advised to be up to date with their vaccinations. The situation may change at any time .
    The risks are mathematically smaller in smaller hotels, with less rooms and less guests, than they are in big hotels. Besides, independent establishments, particularly those that are family-run, have a huge interest in making sure they remain virus-free, as their very survival could depend on it.

The Massif Central ...

The Massif Central is the high upland area of central southern France. While it stretches into six of France's historic regions, the large part of the Massif Central lies in the areas of Auvergne and Limousin. Most of this part of France is relatively sparsely populated upland country, culminating with the volcanic peaks of the Monts d'Auvergne. However the northern parts of the Limousin and the Auvergne, in particular the department of the Allier,  include the pastoral upper areas of the Loire valley basin.  
  Limousin is crossed by the A20 Paris-Toulouse motorway ;  Auvergne is crossed by the A75 Paris - Montpellier / Perpignan motorway.  For access to these areas see Routes through France on About-France.com.
