Cylcing loop of La Charvaz

Savoie offers a diversity of landscapes to discover on a classic or electric bike. At the price of a beautiful climb in a dreamy landscape, win an extraordinary descent through the vineyards before pedaling to the lakeside for an unforgettable experience.

Join France's largest natural lake (45 km²) via the voie verte. This variant of the Tour du Lac du Bourget adds a few moments of pleasure, including the ascent of the Col du Chat, which offers a panoramic view of the lake and the town of Aix-les-Bains, dominated by the Revard. The Chat tunnel, designed for cyclists, makes it easier to reach the vineyards of the Savoyard foreland. In Jongieux, the chef of the Michelin-starred gastronomic restaurant Les Morainières invites you on a gourmet voyage between modernity and tradition, in an exceptional setting with panoramic views of the surrounding mountains, the Rhône and the vineyards. And don't forget to take a final break on one of the terraces in Chanaz, one of Savoie's most picturesque villages! Drive along the Savière canal and then on to Brison Saint Innocent, skirting the lake and enjoying the water's edge on the "voie verte" linking Aix les Bains to Bourget du Lac. Stop off at Les Mottets to take advantage of the 15-hectare tourist facility, which includes an educational observation area for Cistudes turtles, the last French species of freshwater aquatic turtle, and return to Chambéry on the "voie verte".
