Solignat (French pronunciation: [sɔliɲa]; Auvergnat: Solenhac) is a commune in the Puy-de-Dôme department in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region in central France.[3]

Near Solignat lies Puy D'Ysson, a mountain formed by ancient volcanic pipe that reaches 2,808 feet in elevation. The summit of Puy D'Ysson offers a panoramic view of Puy de Sancy, the Chaîne des Puys (including Puy de Dôme), the plateau of Cézallier, and the Livradois-Forez mountain range.[4][5]
