Snowkite

Super Lioran is a snowkite spot near the ski resort of Lioran on the Cantal volcano at 1439m altitude (Cantal, Auvergne). The high plateaus of Cantal are among the best snowkite terrain in the Massif Central, offering vast open spaces with consistent Atlantic winds from the West and South-West.

The resort is easily accessible with good infrastructure. The broad summit areas of the Cantal volcano provide long riding corridors when winds are established.
