Col des Aravis

Highlight • Mountain Pass

This pass, perched at an altitude of 1,487 meters (4,878 feet), connects the departments of Haute-Savoie and Savoie as well as the two ski resorts of La Clusaz and La Giettaz. Very popular with cyclists, be careful on the descent towards Giettaz: there is a tunnel with a bend. Turn on your lights!

Lake Annecy

Highlight • Lake

Lake Annecy is surrounded by mountains. There is an extensive cycle path that follows all around the lake. It can get very crowded in the summer months and is probably best in late spring or early fall. The ride is approximately 36km and mostly flat.

Very nice wide and well maintained bike path. Former tracer of the train linking Alberville and Annecy. Allows you to cycle in a natural setting, far from traditional roads and cars or trucks.

Flumet

Highlight • Settlement

Surrounded by mountains, this town has all the advantages of a small mountain village without the disadvantages of a ski resort that is too garish. Its heart of the village is appreciated by locals and visitors alike.
