Where Le Puy-Loudes Airport is
Le Puy-en-Velay–Loudes Airport is at La Reilhade in Chaspuzac, about 15 minutes by car from Le Puy-en-Velay. The local tourism office describes access from the city as by taxi or rental car.
The airport’s facilities include parking, a bar and a restaurant. The local tourism listing names parking but does not give a fee, capacity or booking process.
How do you drive from the airport to Chaudeyrac?
Driving is the most direct option supported by the available route information, though the airport-to-Chaudeyrac estimate is given as a travel time rather than a road distance. The trip from Hotel de France to the airport is about 67 minutes by car; use that as a reference for planning the reverse journey, not as a guaranteed departure-to-arrival time.
For context, a separate estimate puts the drive from Le Puy-en-Velay to Chaudeyrac at about 50 minutes over 53.7 km. That route begins in the city, not at the airport, so it does not include the airport-to-city leg.
If you’re hiring a car, confirm pickup arrangements directly with the rental provider. The airport tourism listing mentions rental cars as an access option but does not name car-hire companies.
Can you use public transport or a taxi?
Public transport from Le Puy-en-Velay to Chaudeyrac involves a change at Langogne, and the itinerary described by Rome2Rio does not start at the airport. You would first need to arrange the airport-to-city leg.
The itinerary uses a Cars Région Haute-Loire bus from Le Puy’s Pôle Intermodal to Langogne’s Boulevard de Gaulle stop, then liO Car Lozère route 282 to Chaudeyrac Centre RN88. The reported journey takes about 2 hours 12 minutes, with a transfer at Langogne. Chaudeyrac is served by route 282, which connects with Langogne.
A taxi is another option between Le Puy-en-Velay and Chaudeyrac: the estimate is about 50 minutes and €120–€150. That is not an airport-specific quote, so ask a taxi provider about pickup at the airport and the full fare before relying on it.
For the wider local picture, getting around Chaudeyrac includes the liO Car Lozère route 282 connection. The Le Puy urban TUDIP network is a city service, not an airport shuttle.
What should you confirm before setting off?
Check the details that can change: flight arrangements, bus timetables, car availability and road conditions. Le Puy-en-Velay Tourism directs passengers to Twin Jet for flight reservations, while bus services are operated by Cars Région Haute-Loire and liO Car Lozère (Région Occitanie).
Lozère’s road-information service reports closures and significant events, and directs drivers to Bison Futé for conditions on the A75, RN88 and RN106. The department’s summer tourist shuttles do not establish a seasonal connection to Chaudeyrac.
Before you go, check the official site for current travel and road information. From a hotel in Chaudeyrac, Le Puy-Loudes Airport is about 67 minutes by car; confirm your own transfer timing and pickup details before travelling.
