Take a tour of Haute-Savoie and the Aravis mountains.

Haute-Savoie in all seasons

Haute-Savoie is part of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. This département offers a wide range of tourist attractions all year round.
In winter, the snow is ideal for downhill skiing and snowshoeing, while in summer, the mountains reveal a little more of themselves, giving hikers the chance to enjoy themselves to the full.
But there’s much more to Haute-Savoie than its mountains. It’s also an authentic land, where it’s great to wander around the region’s typical villages, such as Le Grand-Bornand, Talloires-Montmin, Alby-sur-Chéran, etc. It would be a shame not to take the time to discover the cultural and architectural wonders of the département, such as Annecy and its famous lake, or the towns of Rumilly and Annemasse.
Its proximity to Italy and Switzerland also makes Haute-Savoie a popular destination for holidaymakers.
And for a holiday worthy of the name, make the most of the local gastronomy!
Tartiflette, fondue savoyarde, berthoud and gâteau de Savoie are a real treat and unforgettable moments of sharing with your loved ones.
