Waterskiing:
Water skiing is very popular and easy to do from the front of The Lakehouse. In fact you can keep your boat directly in front!!
Cycling:
Base yourself in the middle of some of the most stunning cycling country in the world. Enjoy the same clear air as the tour de France cyclists! Cycle around the easy cycling track that encompasses the lake or tackle stunning mountain passes. The Tour de France comes through the Alpes not far from us and in 2009 came past our door!
Fishing:
Fishing has happened on Lake Annecy for the last 18,000 years. The clear water of Lake Annecy has been nurtured to encourage the return of several rare species of fish. Lake Annecy is said to have the cleanest water in Europe thanks to forward thinking in the 1950s. The main source of Lake Annecy comes past our hotel via our canal, from Doussard. Push your boat off from the front of the hotel first thing every morning, return for breakfast to your waterfront housel and then head back out after breakfast and spend the day drifting slowly around the calm waters stopping in for lunch or drinks at one of the stunning little shorefront villages. Many streams flow in the mountains around Lake Annecy within a radius of 30 kilometres so variety is key. Main fish are the Fera and the Omble.
Ski:
Located in southeast France, Savoie Mont Blanc boasts some of the most magnificent landscapes in Europe, stretching between Lac Léman (Lake Geneva) and Provence. From Lake Annecy you can choose from the a delirious assortment of ski stations in every direction, we are right in the heart of the French Alps! Ski by day and sleep by the Lake at night or break up your trip by staying on Lake Annecy before or after your resort stay. Mix fine dining, shopping and sightseeing with the slopes. In early spring combine water sports with skiing!
