Three days in Annecy: spring\/summer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Day one: cycle around the lake<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cycling around Lake Annecy is an incredible way to make the most of your time there, in any season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are various rental shops where you can hire a bike for the day, and if you want a more leisurely ride, many now offer e-bike rentals too. However, in summer they can get extremely busy, so it\u2019s best to aim to get there early and head out on your ride before the queues kick in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why not pack a picnic and stop off at one of the beaches<\/a><\/strong> to enjoy your lunch with a view? If you\u2019re leaving from the centre of Annecy, then Doussard Beach is a great pitstop along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keen cyclists can also head further afield into the Aravis mountains if they\u2019re after some more challenging routes, such as the Col des Aravis and the Col de la Croix Fry, which regularly feature in the Tour de France.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
