With Mont Blanc for a guardian, the Haute-Savoie offers alpine landscapes, classy resorts, a spa paradise. As in the winter, this multi-faceted departement situated between lakes and mountains, offers endless possibilities of summer activities: cruises on the largest lake of Europe (the Léman), walks along the paths of the Vallée Verte, the discovery of châteaux and ancient chapels or even, for the more daring, gliding or paragliding. A region to be enjoyed for its agricultural products as much as for its artisans with time-honoured know-how.
