Roc de Chère National Nature Reserve
Roc de Chère National Nature Reserve, National nature reserve on Lake Annecy, France
The reserve extends across 69 hectares of forested land, featuring limestone cliffs that rise 70 meters above Lake Annecy's eastern shore at 656 meters elevation.
In 1977, the French government established this protected area due to its geological formations and diverse natural environments shaped by quaternary glaciers.
The reserve includes sections of the Talloires golf course, where specific management practices maintain both recreational activities and natural preservation goals.
Visitors can access the reserve through marked trails from Echarvines hamlet, with dedicated parking facilities near the Golf-Club du Lac d'Annecy entrance.
The reserve contains microclimates supporting 560 plant species, including both high-altitude plants at 2000 meters and Mediterranean vegetation in the same location.
