Cycle path between Annecy and Albertville

Highlight • Other

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.

Ascent of the Col de la Forclaz de Montmin from Vésonne

This side of the Col de la Forclaz is well worth it. The climb to Montmin is the toughest along the lakeshore.
