What to do on a romantic weekend in Savoie?
In winter as in summer, the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, and Savoie in particular, is full of must-do activities for couples. It is without doubt the ideal destination for a romantic weekend, whatever the season!
Thrills between skiing and mountain biking
Does your romantic weekend in Savoie call for action?
In winter, put on your skis and head for the Paradiski ski area! Hurtle down the snowy slopes of the Alps together. Try snowshoeing in the powder too!
In summer, the landscape changes. Rent an electric mountain bike to explore the trails. We also recommend punctuating your romantic weekend with a tandem paragliding flight over the valley.
Enjoy Savoie's nature and biodiversity
In summer, swap your skis for walking boots! Set off on a hike to Lac de la Plagne from Rosuel (Peisey-Nancroix). Demanding but memorable, this walk promises an unspoilt natural setting.
The Vanoise National Park invites you to observe the local wildlife in its protected mountains. This protected area is home to more than 2,000 ibex and promises exceptional views of Mont Blanc.
Visit Savoie and enjoy these magical moments as a couple!
Total relaxation with spa and thermal waters
In any season and after exercise, it is time for pure comfort, about 30 km (35 min) from our campsite! Book a relaxing moment (or discover our other favourite wellness addresses) at the Grand Spa Thermal of the Brides-les-Bains thermal baths for your romantic weekend in Savoie.
Slip together into thermal water, naturally warm at 34°C. Let yourselves be enveloped by the bubbles of a whirlpool bath. Enjoy the warmth of an intimate hammam. Extend the relaxation with a couples' massage.
This level of excellence explains why Savoie welcomes tens of thousands of spa guests every year, confirming its status as a major spa destination in the Northern Alps!
Savour Savoie produce together
During your romantic getaway in Savoie, do not neglect the pleasures of the palate! The region is full of excellent traditional restaurants, where you can share the essential Savoie specialities as a couple. Be sure to try Beaufort fondue or tartiflette, and taste the famous diots sausages with crozets.
During the day, visit the Haute Tarentaise Dairy Cooperative in Bourg-Saint-Maurice. Taste the famous Beaufort cheese, chat with local producers and take a few pieces home to prolong the pleasure. Enjoy them in the evening on the terrace of your holiday rental, and do not forget to pair them with an excellent local white wine!
