Central France is the land of extinct volcanoes.
Le Puy Mary is part of the Monts du Cantal, the westernmost of these volcanic range.
It's also the remnant of Europe's largest stratovolcano.
This type of volcanoes, also known as composite volcanoes, were formed by the accumulation of layers of lava, tephra, pumice, and volcanic ash.
