find your dream home in Annecy

Lake Annecy is a truly amazing area for those who are fond of outdoor activities all year round says local property agent Mara Junekere. Cycling, mountain-biking, hiking, climbing, paragliding, sailing, skiing and many more activities are to be enjoyed. And of course the views over lake Annecy and mountains always make me feel like I am living in a "carte postale". Annecy is the capital of Haute-Savoie, just 30 minutes drive from Geneva. It is known for its old town and river Thiou winding through the medieval cobbled streets. Some call it the little Venice of the Alps and its lake is considered to be the cleanest in Europe and offers a vast choice of beaches all around it. There are numerous events throughout the year including the Venetian Carnival. You have a choice of numerous ski resorts just 30 minutes drive from the town. La Clusaz, Le Grand Bornand and Manigod are called Lake Annecy Ski Resorts and offer 220 km of excellent skiing conditions. This THE place for all outdoor sports fans year round - and the gastronomy is scrumptious!
