Freshly arrived in Savoie, we first set foot in Chanaz, a small and rather unique historic village. In fact, the whole place is on the water's edge, like a little mountain Venice. Canals are available for strolling around the town. The setting has preserved its ancient architecture, and this, coupled with the mountains, water and abundant flora that surround it, gives the town an idyllic, almost timeless atmosphere. Once our little tour was over, we decided to take to the open sea and embark on a cruise from Chanaz to Lac du Bourget. The Solely is a solar-powered boat. The result: no pollution, no noise - just a gentle whistle as we cruise along the calm waters of Savières. All that's left to do is let yourself be carried away by the picture-postcard scenery... and by the comments of the captain, who passionately shares the secrets of the region.
