What to do and see in Annecy, Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes: The Best Hidden Gems Things to do
Romance is the lifeblood of Annecy, a town in the Rhone-Alpes region of southeast France that’s replete with castles and cathedrals and softly curving architecture. Stroll hand in hand with your paramour across Pont des Amours (the lover’s bridge) before taking in the Imperial Palace and the baroque Cathedral of Saint-Pierre. A walk down the Rue Royale will be rewarded with prime shopping, dining and people-watching, especially at the fountain of Saint Jean.
Restaurants in Annecy
1. La Tournette
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 273 reviews
Reviewed By jurmas - The Hague, The Netherlands
We parked the car at the beginning of the trail. It is possible to drive to the restaurant le Chalet de l’Aulp where the trail begins. You have to be in good condition if you take the steep route. When you reach the shepherds shelter, the route will split left and to the right. We went left. It was a steep climb at 2/3 of this route but manageable if you are in shape and are a experienced hiker. Bring water, food and wear hiking boots or shoes with a good grip cause you’ll need it. It took 2,5/3 hours to get to the top en less than 2 to get down. We celebrated with a gigantic lunch at the restaurant Le Chalet de l’Aulp. 2x 3-course lunch with 2 cokes and 2 beers. Paid around €50. Highly recommend it!
