With its turquoise lake surrounded by mountains and its historic heritage, Annecy is a real gem that's a must-see!

Annecy is full of breathtaking panoramas including those visible from Talloires, a must-see site for lovers of heavenly settings. It is a timeless place, which can be enjoyed in any season. Escape to the lake in a pretty wooden boat and admire the exceptional views that this perspective offers of the mountains. This little corner of paradise is home to the emblematic Auberge du Père Bise, today the land of expression of Chef Jean Sulpice and his wife Magali or the Abbaye de Talloires, a magnificent building established for more than 1000 years on the east bank. Stop in this timeless place to have tea, lunch or taste the well-being in its SPA with its unique atmosphere set up under its thousand-year-old roof.

The medieval centre of Annecy is to be discovered and explored with its cobbled streets, its colourful houses, its emblematic monument, the Palais de l'Ile (formerly a fortified house, then residence of the Châtelain, then prison) which occupies a central position in the Thiou river.

Follow the canals that wind through the old town to the Pont des Amours, a must-see for lovers. From its footbridge, you can enjoy a lovely view of the lake and its mountains in the background on one side and the Vassé canal flowing peacefully on the other.

Annecy is a gem to discover and savor again and again.
