4Annecy – Alpine Christmas by the Lake
Framed by snow-dusted mountains and a shimmering lake, Annecy offers a different type of storybook Christmas—one inspired by Alpine scenery. The Old Town’s canals and pastel buildings look magical under festive garlands and soft winter lights.
Annecy’s Christmas market is lively and picturesque with wooden chalets, gourmet food stands, and glistening views of the surrounding Alps. The smell of fondue, tartiflette, and mountain-style charcuterie makes it one of France’s most delicious holiday destinations.
Why it feels like a storybook: snowy mountains, canals, and a winter-lake setting worthy of a fantasy novel.
