Veyrier-du-Lac has always been characterized by elegance, international culture and French savoir-vivre. This is not new, but from the end of the 19th century, the beautiful houses on Lake Annecy hosted the last major literary salons.
After the discovery of Chamonix by the first mountain enthusiasts, it is quite natural that the "explorers" went in search of another alpine charm. And they were more than seduced by Lake Annecy and its clear waters. The large luxury hotels and sumptuous villas are built, then, on the banks covered with vineyards and Veyrier-du-Lac becomes a magical place to spend the beautiful season at the water's edge.
Culture and sport
The great names of culture, music, painters, a plethora of French and foreign artists including Americans found themselves in this idyllic landscape between lakes and mountains. Veyrier-du-Lac was the rendezvous of the international jet-set, the gardens on the banks turned into a place of reception, the big families were received from house to house in the joy and good humor.
To the delight of residents, this prestige is still relevant. Veyrier-du-Lac has kept its splendor. The houses have been passed down from generation to generation, the owners know they have a rare property on the east shore, the sunniest lake with extraordinary views. And even today, we still hear the laughter of children playing at the edge of the lake and the sound of diving in fresh water.
Between culture and sport, we never get bored at Veyrier-du-Lac.
Lake Annecy offers all sports activities. We go on a regatta on the lake, we practice water skiing. The practice of swimming, paddling or diving in the purest water in Europe makes all the difference. And depending on the winds, windsurfing, wakeboarding are at the rendezvous. On the mainland, the grandiose hikes on foot or by bike lead us to incredible contemplations of the Alps and Mont-Blanc and then fans of the little white ball are not left out, the golf of Talloires is one of the most beautiful courses of the Alps. Talloires is also known for these beautiful properties.
