Investing in the Aravis Mountains
The Aravis Mountains enjoy a prime location between the elegance of Annecy and its turquoise lake, and the tranquillity of the Alpine peaks. Easily accessible from Geneva and major transport routes, the area offers a relaxed pace of life, unspoilt natural surroundings, and a unique balance of nature, tradition, and charm.
A strategic year-round destination
In summer, the villages come to life with local markets, open-air events, scenic walks through alpine pastures, hikes to high-altitude lakes, mountain biking, and leisurely moments on sun-soaked terraces overlooking the peaks. In winter, the snow blankets the chalets and opens the door to top-tier ski areas and a wide range of Nordic activities.
The Aravis Mountains are also the birthplace of farmhouse Reblochon, a celebrated AOP cheese made for generations in alpine chalets, following time-honoured methods passed down with care. A true symbol of the deep bond between farming and local culture, it reflects a way of life where gastronomy and tradition go hand in hand. This unique balance of unspoilt nature, living heritage and thoughtful tourism gives the Aravis region lasting appeal—for both visitors and investors.
Investing in the Aravis means choosing a vibrant, year-round destination where four-season tourism optimises rental potential and enhances long-term property value.
A destination full of charm
The Aravis mountain range is home to several distinctive villages, each with its own character and way of life.
Le Grand-Bornand
A village resort with quintessential Savoyard charm, where century-old chalets and lively mountain pastures blend with a rich cultural programme. In summer, its traditional festivals, farmers’ market and the Au Bonheur des Mômes Festival make it an unmissable destination for families.
Manigod
Perched high above and flooded with natural light, this resort captivates visitors with exceptional panoramic views and hikes to the Col de la Croix Fry. Here, the mountains are enjoyed in a friendly atmosphere, set within a beautiful, unspoilt natural environment.
Saint-Jean-de-Sixt
Situated at the crossroads of the Aravis, this village benefits from direct access to La Clusaz and Le Grand-Bornand, while maintaining a peaceful and residential mountain atmosphere.
La Clusaz
Lively and cosmopolitan, the resort combines sporting activities, major events and a diverse range of shops. A favourite starting point for mountain biking, hiking and skiing enthusiasts, it stands as one of the mountain range’s flagship destinations.
Just 30 minutes away, Lake Annecy extends the alpine experience with its beaches, crystal-clear waters and the incomparable charm of its old town — often called « The Venice of the Alps ».
