Annecy, France
Annecy is a city in France by the lake, and in my opinion, it’s one of the country’s most popular destinations. I’d heard of it many times before, and it had always made me curious to visit. It reminds me of Lake Geneva—but smaller. Well, it’s actually quite close to Lake Geneva.
Before the summer ended, we went to Annecy for a couple of days to check out the place. It also happened that our friend lives in Évian, so we met her in Annecy. The city itself is small and easy to explore, but there’s no shortage of activities to do: water sports, hiking, and more. What we did—and what I enjoyed the most—was biking around the lake.
Man, the route is beautiful. Sunny skies. A turquoise lake. And most importantly, safe bike lanes. We stopped at a few crowded beaches, but there are also plenty of spots around the lake that are perfectly relaxing and peaceful. Straight out of a movie. Okay, that might be an exaggeration—but you know what I mean. 😉
A quick trip to Annecy during the last days of summer is just the right amount of sun before heading into rainy autumn and cold winter. I would love to bike around the lake again—or somewhere similar.
