Annecy, the lake and the mountains!
A multifaceted destination for an unforgettable experience!
Lake Annecy offers magnificent landscapes and a protected landscape.
The autumn light illuminates the vegetation, the shades of yellow and red on the mountains above the clear blue of the lake is a true natural spectacle.
In winter Lake Annecy is peaceful, surrounded this time by snow-covered mountains, nature is calm and sleepy but the site still offers you good moments of fresh air.
Surrounded by mountains, the preserved area of Lake Annecy is a dream setting.
The lake is located at an altitude of 447 metres. At its highest point, it is overlooked by the Tournette, an armchair-shaped peak that rises to 2351 metres.
A territory in perfect harmony with nature because the key words in this area, for more than 40 years, have been: "respect and protection".
The protected areas are accessible for discovery and wonder, with the aim of a reasonable harmony between the landscape, the inhabitants and the visitors!
