In the Haute Savoie region of France, Lake Annecy is only 50 kilometers from Geneva, in Switzerland. The beautiful Alpine lake is ringed by famous resort towns such as Talloires, Menthon, and has been depicted in many different travel posters. This bird's-eye view gives a grand, over-all impression of the geography of the area with the mountains coming straight down into the lake as well as some of the cultivated land at lakeside.
