From the road to the Col de Leschaux, the view of Lake Annecy is simply breathtaking. As you climb towards the pass, the landscapes gradually reveal themselves, offering breathtaking panoramas of the turquoise waters of the lake framed by the majestic mountains of the Alps. The contrast between the deep blue of the lake and the green or snow-capped peaks creates a natural picture of striking beauty.
