A lakeside spa town in the French Alps
Aix-les-Bains is one of France’s best-known spa towns, set beside Lac du Bourget in the Savoie region. Known for its thermal waters since Roman times, it combines the atmosphere of a historic spa town with the natural setting of France’s largest natural lake — Belle Époque architecture, thermal spas, lakeside restaurants and easy access to the surrounding mountains make it a popular choice for wellness breaks, summer holidays and short stays throughout the year.
Visitors can relax at thermal wellness centres, stroll along the lakeside promenade, explore the town centre, or enjoy boat trips and watersports on Lac du Bourget. In summer, the lake is ideal for swimming, paddleboarding, sailing and cycling, while the surrounding Savoie mountains offer hiking, road cycling and spectacular viewpoints. Aix-les-Bains is also well placed for visiting Chambéry, Annecy and the wider Alpine region.
