The park stretches from the town of Royat, along the Tiretaine river, and serves as a backdrop to the spa's architectural heritage (thermal baths, bars and casino).
In the lower part of the spa park, you'll find the thermal baths built in the 1850s and the casino, two buildings that contribute to Royat's rich architectural heritage.
During your stroll, you'll have the chance to admire the remains of the Gallo-Roman thermal baths discovered in 1876, as well as the buvette Eugénie with its bluish mosaics. It was named in honor of Empress Eugénie and her husband Napoleon III, who visited the thermal baths in 1862.
In the upper part of the park, the "geoscope", an educational circuit, lets you discover local geology through rock samples scattered around the park, as well as children's play areas.
How to get there :
- By car: parking rue de la grotte
- By bus: ROYAT Place Allard stop (lines B, 5 and 26)
