Annecy

by steventilly - last update: Sep 13, 2002

Annecy lies by the shore of Lake Annecy and below the hills of La Tournette and Le Semnoz. The lake is connected to the river Fier by the Canal du Thiou, which runs through the town in a series of branches. The most attractive parts of the town are alongside these waterways, and the various shops, restaurants and walkways are all decked with flower baskets to make a very pretty scene.
As well as being a nice place in it's own right, Annecy is also great for day trips to places such as Chamonix, Aix Le Bains and Geneva.
