View of Lake Annecy from the Croix du Chuguet

Highlight • Viewpoint

Croix du Chugeut is the closest look out when hiking from Annecy. It is a great uphill hike to get to to it and the views are totally worth it.

I really enjoyed the reveal as you emerge from the forest and step up to the view.

Nice tour but not much clearance to see the landscape. Lots of cool and pleasant drilling in summer.
