For those who want to hike, the city is a great departure to discover the lake from the surrounding mountains. From easy trails in the Semnoz forest (which offer great views just 30-40 min walk from the city) to much more demanding trails at the Mont Veyrier or La Tournette (sites of many paragliding ride departures). You will get superb views on the lake and on the greatest peaks of the Alps sitting right behind. Some of these trails are not too well indicated so you may ask for a proper map at the local tourist office for better directions.
