Large lakes, natural jewels
Chambéry Montagnes offers a vast array of water sports, with lakes, rivers and swimming pools. The Lac du Bourget, France’s largest natural lake of glacial origin, is a real natural jewel, captivating visitors with its panoramic views and diversity of activities. You can swim, sail, paddle, kayak or take unforgettable cruises along the Savières canal and the Haut Rhône.
A few kilometres away, Lac d’Aiguebelette charms with its emerald waters and unspoilt setting. The more intimate Lac de Saint-André at the foot of Mont Granier and Lac de la Thuile offer peace and quiet and authenticity for fishing, walking or a family picnic.
Water sports and thrills
To combine nature and leisure, water sports centres such as Îles du Chéran or Wam Park in Montailleur offer supervised swimming, water games, wakeboarding and other fun activities. Thrill-seekers can try their hand at canyoning in the Bauges, with natural slides, waterfalls and abseiling supervised by qualified guides.
Swimming pools and relaxation all year round
Chambéry and Les Aillons-Margériaz (in summer) are ideal for swimming, relaxing or taking advantage of the fun facilities for children.
With its large lakes, secret spots and leisure centres, Chambéry Montagnes offers a varied choice of water-based activities for young and old alike.
