After the success of last year we are returning to Lake Annecy. As with previous years the focus is on outdoors related family fun with swimming, cycling, climbing, via ferrata and hiking options all easily accessible in the area around Lanke Annecy, as well as the potential for parents to escape from the family for a day to themselves.
