Tour of Lake Annecy in Morgan
I suggest you meet us on avenue d'Albigny, facing the lake and the Pâquier esplanade. Our tour will take place clockwise around Lake Annecy. We step over the step and get into the Morgan. Let’s close our eyes for a moment to breathe in the smell of leather, we’re in the 1930s (when this car was designed). We open our eyes and raise our heads, the sky is blue, everything is perfect for a journey back in time. Engine, let's go. Very quickly, the breeze that caresses our cheeks intoxicates us with happiness. We will go along the lake, towards Veyrier-du-Lac. I will make you discover magic places. We will chain the villages: Menthon-Saint-Bernard where we will ride by the lake and admire its pontoons and its Palace feet in the water. The lake is beautiful up close but you have to know how to climb up. We will climb to the Col de la Forclaz from where we can admire the lake in its entirety (exceptional panorama). Take-off site for paragliders and hang gliders. After this oxygenating halt, return on board our fabulous craft towards the lake and the town of Talloires renowned for its magnificent bay and its luxury hotels. Resumption of our road towards Angon and return by the west coast, closer to the lake while passing in front of the castle of Duingt, Saint-Jorioz, Sévrier and arrival in Annecy. Other things to note Knowing that we roll "hair in the wind", plan: - What to tie the hair, a cap or a hat - A pair of sunglasses (for sun and wind) - A vest, sweatshirt or jacket (windbreaker), even in summer - Warm clothes in winter - A water bottle
