Cascade d'angon, Natural waterfall near Lake Annecy, France
Cascade d'Angon is a waterfall located within a forested mountain valley near Talloires-Montmin, where water flows over limestone formations. The stream descends through a natural canyon surrounded by dense woodland, with viewing areas accessible to visitors.
Water from this cascade has been recognized and valued by residents of the region for generations. Access routes through the canyon developed over time as the site attracted increasing visitor interest.
