Lac du Bourget
Tweet

With water temperatures topping 20ºC, Lac du Bourget is popular for all kinds of watersports.   Take a cruise round France’s largest natural lake to see Hautecombe Abbey, burial place of the Dukes of Savoy, and visit their castle at nearby Chambéry.

The elegant spa town of Aix-les-Bains combines Belle Epoque style with modern amenities in a unique lakeside position.  Relax with a treatment at the wellbeing spa, spend a day at the races, or play the tables of the opulent Grand Cercle casino.
