Le Chinaillon is a beautiful mountain resort in the heart of the French Alps. At 1300m it is just above the main savoyard village of Le Grand Bornand, where a traditional reblochon market still takes place every week in the market square. It is perfectly located between Mont Blanc, Annecy, Aix-les-Bains and Geneva. The Aravis mountains which reach a summit of 2750m provide the most amazing backdrop and combined with the neighbouring resort of La Clusaz (a short ride by ski bus) enable you to enjoy over 200km of fantastic skiing!
Although well known as a winter sports resort, there are also many summer activities to enjoy on your doorstep: Outdoor pool and aqua fitness centre, acrobatic centre, 10 hole golf course, archery, tennis, mountain biking, mini golf, walking/hiking, via ferrata, canyoning, white-water rafting, paragliding and hot air ballooning. There are also 150km of marked footpaths through forests and alpine fields where you can discover the true Haute Savoie.
