Golf in Annecy Mountains

Mention Lake Annecy and people picture turquoise lakes, the cobbled old town and the surrounding Aravis mountains. BUT this area, Annecy Mountains  also has a great offering for golfers to combine a sports break with some foodie hot spots to savor the local reblochon cheese and to enjoy a game of golf within the incredible surrounding lakes and mountains backdrop. Here are a few of the best golf courses and options around the region:

In Le Grand Bornand

Golf Le Rocher Blanc

Located in the Bouchet alley in Le Grand-Bornand, Le Rocher Blanc golf course is a relatively technical course at the foot of the Aravis mountain range, offering a magnificent view of its highest point: the pointe Percée.
