Located in Southeast France, between Paris and the French Riviera/Côte d'Azur, Rhône-Alpes is a region of diversity: the French Alps and Mont Blanc (the highest peak in Europe at 15,771 feet), four national parks Vanoise, Vercors, Pilat and Ecrins, vineyards, endless lavender fields, and remote and pure lakes are among the most beautiful landscapes in the world. The Rhône-Alpes region is ideal for outdoor activities and nature sports.

The French Alps are among the most popular year-round resort areas in the world, with internationally renowned ski areas such as Chamonix, Megève and Courchevel, and historic cities like Chambery, the capital of the Savoie before it joined France in 1860.

Today Lyon, with its excellent museum and fine renaissance buildings, is the second city of France. It is one of the country’s most vital commercial and cultural centers as well as the undisputed champion of French cuisine. CONTACT
