The Livradois (French pronunciation: [livʁadwa]) is a natural region in France located in the center of the Massif Central, within the departments of Puy-de-Dôme and Haute-Loire. It consists of a mountainous massif, the Livradois mountains, and a plain, the Livradois plain. Together, they form a coherent and recognized human, cultural, and economic entity, though they do not constitute a specific political entity. The Livradois is part of the Livradois-Forez Regional Natural Park.[1]
The name of this natural region is Liuradés in the Occitan language.[2]
