Experience
July 25th 2025
This Summer, escape to the mountains as a family
As the snow melts from the summits, the mountains unveil another facet of their beauty: the brilliance of alpine meadows, the crystal clarity of high-altitude lakes, and paths lined with wildflowers. This exceptional natural setting invites reconnection and renewal. In Savoie and Haute-Savoie, mountain villages and resorts offer a rare sense of balance, where gentle tourism allows time to live well, to breathe deeply, and to enjoy meaningful moments together.
Summer in the mountains
A haven for families, the mountains in summer offer a rich array of activities for all ages: hiking, mountain biking, treetop adventure trails, horse riding, leisurely moments on sunny terraces, and the chance to explore local heritage. Cultural and sporting events also bring the resorts to life throughout the season.
Choosing a mountain getaway means embracing tranquillity over bustle, nature over concrete, and fresh air over stifling heat. It is a precious invitation to disconnect, to return to what truly matters, and to experience an authentic, restorative holiday.
