Located at the foot of the Grand Colombier and on the banks of the Rhône, Culoz has great historical wealth. Its first inhabitants populated it in 7600 BC, before passing through the ages. This city of sport and nature is located at the gateway to Savoie, at the crossroads of remarkable landscapes and fauna and flora as diverse as they are rare.
