What to do in Annecy when it rains?
We’re lucky enough to enjoy beautiful, warm, sunny days here in Haute-Savoie, but sometimes a few drops of rain come to refresh our campsite. Don’t worry, because at Camping l’Idéal we’ve got everything we need to make your stay a pleasant one, even when it’s raining.
Whether in bright sunshine or gentle rain, let yourself be tempted by an outdoor adventure, even when the weather isn’t perfect, and enjoy everything our campsite has to offer, whatever the weather!
