TAKE YOUR TIME... TO ADMIRE THE AUTUMN COLORS
The days are getting shorter, but nature is calmer and the colors are more vibrant, so it's time to take your time and enjoy a walk on a sunny day.
... TO SAVOUR
Autumn is always a time for gourmet delights, and in Le Grand-Bornand you'll find plenty to tantalise your taste buds. As you stroll through the countryside, you'll find mushrooms and wild plants, but for the uninitiated, the weekly market (on Wednesday mornings) or the shops offer plenty of opportunities to shop and discover local products: sausages, local ham, etc. and the famous farmhouse Reblochon cheese.
... TO MEET
Le Grand-Bornand, a village with a strong character, has much more in store for you than just its scenery. As you stroll through the village, you'll discover that it's a place where people meet, where there's culture and art, and where the Cow Art path is a must. Its local identity is expressed through its century-old chalets, where you can visit the authentic Maison du Patrimoine, or its mountain pasture farms where you can discover how Reblochon cheese is made, as well as its chapels and oratories. You can also meet passionate craftspeople, such as Maison Augusta, a showcase for the skills of local designers.
OR KEEP THE RHYTHM...
and stay in shape! A wide range of activities are still available, including walking and hiking, mountain biking, golf, adventure courses, horse riding and via ferrata... you're sure to find something to suit you!
A few ideas for routes on foot... or mountain bike!
BUT IF YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT WINTER...
If your spatulas are itching and you can't wait for winter to come as soon as the Aravis mountain range turns white, then it's time to get ready for the next ski season! Autumn is the best time to take advantage of special offers on holidays, downhill and cross-country ski passes, and to renew your equipment at the sports shop sale.
