This small mountain village nestles in the Sioulot valley. It is built around its Romanesque basilica. The building itself is well worth a visit. Built in the 12th century, it is one of the 5 major basilicas in Auvergne. The turreted houses are a real eye-catcher. An 8.2-kilometre hike leads to Orcival's wobbly rock. The result of erosion, this strange rock, seemingly held together by magic or chance, looks as if it could topple over at any moment. It is surrounded by legends. Orcival is surrounded by numerous other hiking and outdoor activity spots. It's no coincidence that the town has been awarded the Station Verte label.
