Annecy is found between the lake water and the mountains. The old town can be explored on foot, along the Thiou and its canals lined with colorful buildings. You can see the Isle Palace, an old jail from the 12th century on a small island, and the Annecy Castle, sitting above the roofs from its medieval walls. The Pont des Amours gives a clear view of the lake, while the Gardens of Europe invite walks. Around the city, the lake is good for swimming and water sports. There is a bike trail, about 42 km long, that circles the lake. It passes by beaches and small ports. Further up, Parmelan and the Glières Plateau offer forest and mountain meadow trips, with views of the Alps. The area also has some castles like Montrottier with its octagonal tower, and Clermont with Renaissance galleries. In summer, markets fill the squares, and the terraces near the water become busy. In winter, the first snows fall on the Aravis mountains. Every season changes the look of the place and gives a new reason to visit again.
