Hello, Bufadou is a story I initiated to realize my childhood dreams, and today it’s more than that... Bufadou has become an adventure led by my family, with my wife Anne and my son Germain, who was voted the best mischief guide in the region. Let’s not forget Spy, our little dog, who wonderfully fulfills his role as a mascot. It is also a project supported by a team. A team that resembles me. A team of passionate, dedicated, and enthusiastic individuals that I have assembled. It fully embodies our project of a sports base camp. An ambition that has always motivated me and that has come to life since July 2018. Today, Solène, Romain, and the whole team welcome you for a stay in the heart of Cantal. Every morning, the team rises with the intention of giving our guests the chance to experience the same love at first sight that I have for these mountains. Every day, I wake up with a smile because I know that you will live, on our ski slopes, our mountain bike trails, our hiking paths, or at our table, an experience that you will remember... See you soon in our beautiful territory that is Cantal. Clément

Le Bufadou is the first medium mountain Base Camp. A lodge that is both modern and steeped in tradition. A hybrid concept that draws its uniqueness from the authenticity of mountain huts, the friendliness of staging inns, and the generous hospitality typical of guesthouses. Le Bufadou is a favored stopping point for all hikers on the GR400, GR4, and throughout the Cantal mountains. A welcome stopover appreciated for its tasty food and friendly atmosphere, allowing guests to leave rejuvenated and ready to tackle the trails the following day. Le Bufadou is a typical, lively chalet for all skiers at the Lioran resort, the ideal place for a family or friends ski holiday. Le Bufadou features a sunny terrace where all cycling enthusiasts, from road bikers to downhill mountain bikers, park their two-wheeled rides to sip on a refreshing drink and enjoy our homemade blueberry pie. Le Bufadou is the headquarters for all local athletes. A hub, a den where all mountain lovers gather after their outings to eat, talk, learn, and share while enjoying the passage of time. Le Bufadou is the place of residence for all adrenaline and nature lovers, whether you're an enthusiast seeking adventure or a seasoned athlete. Whether you want to discover the ski slopes of Lioran or trek the volcanic paths of Cantal once again. Whether you’re alone or in a group, with friends or family. Whether you're looking for pleasure or performance.

The authenticity of mountain refuges, the friendliness of stage lodges, and the generous meals typical of inns. Le Bufadou is the first Sports Base Camp in the mid-mountains.
