Lake Annecy

The Lac d'Annecy is the second largest lake in France. Take a long walk along it, or rent a bike if you're up for a longer tour, and admire the scenery of the Alps. It has been an inspiration for many artists, such as Paul Cézanne, who made several paintings of it. Don't miss the Lake Festival, a fireworks show who takes place every year in August.

Do & See

Discovering Annecy is like wandering in a romantic fairy tale. The castle, the gates, the arches are a perfect setting to stroll around. The lovely canals leading to the purest lake of Europe and all the cultural events draw 2.5 million visitors each year.
