It's decided: a long summer weekend in the Venice of the Alps is yours! You've made the best decision and we'll tell you why (with a few little nuggets to discover between lake and mountain).
- Take a half-day stroll (at least!) through the old town, discovering craftsmen, ice-cream parlours, churches, shops and restaurants, along the canals and up to the Paquier, a huge grassy esplanade on the lakefront
- Take a pedal boat or boat trip on the lake, you will be spoilt for choice on the Paquier and at the landing stage in the old town - Go for a day's hike to discover the most beautiful panoramas around the lake. The Taillefer is THE hike to do directly from our campsite if you are staying with us in Saint Jorioz.
- Plan a bike ride around the lake, picnic and swimming costume in your backpack! Count on 3 hours of pedaling for the 35 km tour of the lake, and as much as you wish to laze around on one of the many beaches that border the lake
- Visit the Secret Gardens in Vaulx, 30 minutes by car from Annecy: a typical Moroccan garden, imagined and created by a family of North African origin and adopted from Haute-Savoie.
- Discover the Château de Menthon which overlooks the lake. With its small turrets of different heights, it seems that Walt Disney was inspired to design the castle of Sleeping Beauty...
