Description de l'itinéraire

Intermediate / Medium difficulty The loop around Lake Annecy is a cycling circuit of about 40 km around the lake, starting from Annecy.
The route alternates between a safe greenway (west shore) and bike paths/bike lanes on the east shore, with a few small climbs but no major difficulty.
Suitable for regular cyclists as well as fairly sporty families, it offers an exceptional panoramic ride between turquoise water and mountains. Remember to bring a picnic and a swimsuit depending on the season.

Poulette's advice

Do the loop clockwise starting from Annecy (Annecy - Veyrier - Menthon St Bernard - Talloires - Doussard - Duingt - Saint Jorioz - Sevrier and back to Annecy).
