Semnoz was the site of a summit climb in the 2013 Tour de France. At 1, 699 m (5,574 ft) above sea level, it was a feat for any professional cyclist. Fortunately, you can master the mountain by car and visit the summit’s highest point for spectacular views of the surrounding peaks on the horizon and the villages dotting the land below your feet. Using our world travel planner, Annecy attractions like Semnoz can form part of a personalized travel itinerary.

  • A must go if you love a good view. We took a taxi up to the top, wish we could have stayed longer. Great spot for picnic and champagne in summer.

  • Beautiful place to the Mont-Blanc when perfect weather and enjoy the sunset ! You can also enjoy it by riding from Annecy or hiking in the area.
  • Find a sunny day and grab a pair of binoculars with you. The panorama is breathtaking. There are some small trekking routes with low elevation. You can also try some very expensive shops selling local food products. It is reachable from Annecy by gondola or car/bus.
  • Wonderful views of the Alps, Mont Blanc, and much of Haute Savoie.
  • Peak.. cold.. calm.. Scenic.. Winter jackets are much needed atleast to have a visit there. You can drive directly to the place, open place.
  • Beautiful place with wide open spaces. Perfect for a family walk or dog walk, or just to enjoy the fresh air by ourselves. Clean environment, and many different little paths to take and walk in a loop.
