Cycle path between Annecy and Albertville

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.

Pleasant route to/from Col du Marais

Highlight (Segment) • Other

The Marais pass is a rather accessible pass compared to other passes in the Aravis. Less known and therefore less frequented, this makes it a very pleasant little pass!

Flanked by steep mountains, the turquoise-green shimmering Lac d'Annecy is a very special gem in the Savoy Alps. As a racing cyclist, you can have fun on the steep slopes all around🙃. The Forclaz has one of the sharpest slopes of the French. Alps. But at the top you will be rewarded terrifically. Paragliders also throw themselves from the launch …
