OPTIONAL EXTRAS
Set off on The Three Lakes Bike Tour, a captivating cycling journey through the heart of the Alps' scenic landscapes and historical towns. Beyond being a regular cycling adventure, these four days will introduce you to Switzerland and France through time and nature.
The vibrant city of Geneva offers a unique blend of international flair besides its picturesque setting of Lake Geneva. Furthermore, the Rhône River adds its charms with surrounding vineyards and the serene countryside.
The historic spa town of Aix-les-Bains on the shores of Lake Bourget, France's largest natural lake, is next in line with this tour’s notable locations. The region’s natural beauty is unparalleled, characterized by opportunities to delve into its rich history with a ride through Chambéry, the heart of Savoy.
Upon reaching Annecy, known for its pristine lake, you will experience the authentic alpine culture and architecture. The town's rich history and charming canals are the main reasons Annecy was dubbed the Venice of the French Alps.
The tour is suited for cyclists with a great fitness level, offering rewarding riding along paved roads. Even though you will experience only four full cycling days, the daily length of stages and remarkable elevation levels present the real challenge here.
We take care of every logistical detail so you can focus on the adventure ahead. All your accommodations and luggage transfers are pre-booked, while we provide a digital guidebook with recommendations and GPS routes to ensure you never miss a turn.

Top Places You'll See
From natural wonders to authentic local culture, the route is packed with memorable sights—these are our absolute favorites.

Geneva
Set on the western tip of Lake Geneva, the city is framed by the Alps and Jura mountains. The Jet d’Eau fountain shoots water 140 meters into the air, while the Old Town is home to St. Pierre Cathedral, dating to the 12th century. Known as a hub of diplomacy, Geneva hosts over 200 international organizations, including the United Nations.

Seyssel
Straddling both banks of the Rhône River, Seyssel is one of the oldest river ports in the Savoy region. Its arched stone bridge was first built in the 14th century and later rebuilt in 1837, linking the two sides of town. Seyssel is also known for its sparkling white wine, produced from vineyards that stretch across the surrounding hills.

Aix-les-Bains
This lakeside spa town sits on the shores of Lake Bourget, the largest natural lake in France at 44 square kilometers. Famous since Roman times for its thermal springs, Aix-les-Bains developed into a fashionable Belle Époque resort in the 19th century, with grand villas and ornate bathhouses. Today, it combines wellness traditions with outdoor activities on lake and mountain trails.

Annecy
Known as the “Venice of the Alps,” Annecy is famed for its canals, pastel-colored houses, and alpine lake. Lake Annecy, fed by mountain springs, is considered the cleanest lake in Europe, stretching 14 kilometers in length. Overlooking the town is the Château d’Annecy, a castle dating to the 12th century, now a museum showcasing Savoyard history.

Lake Bourget
Encircled by wooded hills and limestone cliffs, Lake Bourget is the largest natural lake in France at 18 kilometers long. It has been celebrated in literature and art, most famously by the poet Alphonse de Lamartine in 1820. Today the lake is popular for swimming, sailing, and cycling along its scenic shores, with the Alps reflected in its calm waters.
