Aix les Bains

If you’re looking for an interesting day out with the family this month, you might like to venture a little further afield and try visiting Aix-les-Bains. It is situated just beyond Annecy in the direction of Chambéry.
This small French town has a little bit of everything to offer its visitors, including shopping, eating and relaxing. If you go on a Saturday morning, you must visit the farmer’s market – and remember to take your camera with you – it’s an impressive sight!
If the weather’s good and you have plenty of time, treat yourself to a cruise along the lake and the Canal de Savières – The Compagnie des Bateaux du Lac du Bourget et du Haut-Rhône offers a wide choice of outings ranging from one hour to all day. Take a look at their website (www.gwel.com) for more details.

Mont Mussy/Mont Mourex, near Divonne-les-Bains
Whether you are looking for a romantic walk for two to watch the evening sun set over Geneva, or you require an outing where your kids can let off a bit of steam, then Mount Mourex has exactly what you’re looking for.
We set off on foot from the town hall in Divonne, up the path past the golf course and on towards the Source of Divonne, an impressive location where the river literally comes out of the rock before starting its journey through Divonne.
The path leads you to a point where you have to cross the main road leading out of Divonne towards Gex, but from then on you remain in the woods until you reach the summit. There is a small, rustic auberge (La Ferme du Mont Mussy, telephone 00 33/4 50 20 24 52) half way up on the left hand side, which has wonderful views over Lake Geneva and offers delicious food, cooked without the aid of modern electrical appliances. Once the sun sets, it’s candlelight only!
