Lac d’Aiguebelette isn’t just a lake — it’s a place where time slows down, where beauty feels untouched, and where some of the most precious memories with people I admire were made. Nestled in the Savoie region of France, this emerald-green lake offers more than just stunning scenery; it holds an emotional weight that’s hard to put into words.
The first time I visited, I was struck by the peacefulness. No motorboats, no crowds — just the stillness of the water, the green hills wrapping around like a quiet embrace, and the reflection of the sky dancing on the surface. But what truly gives Lac d’Aiguebelette its magic is the company I’ve shared it with. It’s where I spent long afternoons with people who matter deeply to me — people I respect, look up to, and am lucky enough to call friends and family.
We shared laughs on paddleboards, quiet conversations by the shore, and sunset walks that felt like scenes from a film. Each visit brought something meaningful: a deeper bond, a shared story, a new inside joke. The lake became our meeting ground, our retreat, our shared secret. It brought us closer.
To me, Lac d’Aiguebelette is more than a travel destination — it’s a mirror of connection, a backdrop to important moments, and a living album of some of the people I admire most. I carry it with me wherever I go. And every time I think of...

Two islands in the middle of the lake (one is accessible on foot and has a chapel hidden in the middle of it). Lots of watersports - kayaking, pedalos, SUP, powerboats etc. and also a lot of cycling options , including a loop of the lake (~16km). You can rent most things you might want to do from several locations or bring your own craft/bikes. Very worthwhile place to visit or stay nearby, we can recommend Sougey for the beach, cafes, restaurants and general facilities, including a...
Read moreVous voulez simplement mettre les pieds dans l'eau sans avoir a payer une plage, passez votre chemin. Le tour du lac est verrouillé et vous ne pouvez pas y accéder sans débourser. Je comprends que des services de plage avec équipements soient payant mais qu'on ait au moins certains endroits libre d'accès au lac !!! Sans compter que les plages sont pas grandes et les gens les uns sur les autres ....De plus, vous voulez faire du pédalo et bien prenez bien votre montre car 4-5 min de retard = une demi heure de plus a payer. Et c'est d'autant plus insupportable que même si vous revenez à l'heure, si il y a la queue a la caisse car les gars sont pas assez nombreux pour gérer l'afflux, c'est quand même a vous de payer le retard !!! Vous voulez simplement marcher autour du lac, et bien il n'y a pas toujours de chemin donc vous vous retrouvez parfois sur la route avec les voitures qui frollent ou sinon c'est parfois des chemin bitumés sans charme et sans visibilité sur le lac ...super .... En résumer,...
