ブリュフィーの絶景の山頂・トップ18

A panoramic view of Lake Annecy, the Tournette mountain, and the alpine pastures. A mountain pass that can mark the summit of a hike, with a refreshment stand just steps away for a lunch break on sunny days.

Each of these crosses, which the traveler often encounters in the fields or, as here, on the mountaintops—in this case combined with a beautiful view of the lake and the opposite shore—is a sign commemorating the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. “Here on earth, His memory exists, but in the Kingdom of Heaven is His presence: this presence is the joy of those who have already attained salvation. Remembrance is our comfort, we who are still wanderers, traveling toward our homeland.” (Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, c. 1090–1153)

It's a must-see in the Annecy basin! Mont Baron peaks at 1,299 meters above sea level, just a little higher than its neighbor Mont Veyrier. From there, you have a superb view of the lake, Annecy, the Semnoz, and the Entrevernes mountain in particular.

Please note that since 2024, a decree prohibits access to the parking lot and prevents parking along the road. They pass by and issue fines otherwise.

Overcrowded, closed parking lots

Views and vistas to rave about.

Nice photo spot! Up on the bike from the Col de l'Aulp, some technical and exposed passages to get there but nothing too bad. Possibility to continue via Roc Lancrenaz to reach the Dents de Lanfon or to go back down via Combe Noire.

The view is magnificent and the place rather calm.
