ポワジーの絶景の山頂・トップ6

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)

Views and vistas to rave about.

Beautiful view over the lake

The climb to reach Mont Veyrier is a bit steep. The view is beautiful but it is not possible to stop and go back down while Mont Baron is about ten minutes away where you can sit down to observe the view and Lake Annecy. Mont Veyrier is not a place where it is possible to really land without hindering the passage of people because it is only a path.
