Easy Walking Tour: Notre-Dame de l'Etoile

The lookout over the Lac du Bourget and the surrounding mountains is simply majestic. "A place for contemplation".

An attractive little promontory, quickly reached, where you can spend a few quiet moments observing the surroundings from the reading tables. This steep mountainside plunging into the lake is dominated by a chapel. Take a few minutes to soak up the special local atmosphere, or pack a family picnic for a relaxing stopover away from it all. Between lake and mountains, this unique place will not leave your memory of landscapes untouched... This is an essential stopover on a tour of the lake along our picturesque roads.
