Between lakes and rivers :
the art of fishing in the Bauges

Discover fishing in Aillons-Margériaz and the Cœur des Bauges, between peaceful lakes and wild rivers. The setting is unspoilt, the atmosphere serene and nature generous. Here, people come to tease the trout as much as to enjoy a moment of calm, as the water goes by and the seasons change.

From sporty casting on the banks of the Chéran to quiet fishing on the lake, each spot reveals a new face of the region.
