Seminar E-Bike & Génépi making

Let's make your own Génépi during an e-bike tour around the lake!

What if you experienced Lake Annecy in a different way?

This e-bike tour is first and foremost an experience which combines nature, Alpine heritage, and a convivial moment with the making of Génépi, an emblematic plant of our mountains.

Thanks to electric assistance, the tour is possible for all levels: everyone rides at their own pace, without any pressure to perform. The bike becomes a nice way to ride alongside Lake Annecy, while fully enjoying the sceneries... and for those who are really keen on, why not riding the whole 38km loop?

Almost all along the itinerary, you can see Lake Annecy: ride on the iconic cycling path, pass by the Bout du Lac nature reserve, discover Talloires Bay and the Roc de Chère... Our local guides will accompany you and share the secrets of the region, with regular stops to enjoy the views, take pictures and simply breathe.

Highlight: Génépi making workshop

A key moment of this experience is the dedicated stop to discover and make your own Génépi!

Our guide will accompany you with a specially designed cargo bike, built and equipped to carry all the materials needed for the workshop.

This cargo bike becomes a true mobile workshop, seamlessly integrated into the ride. In a friendly and relaxed setting, you will ll learn about the history of Génépi, its traditional uses, and the steps involved in crafting it, all while respecting Alpine know-how. Each of you will leave with their own small Génépi bottle!

This unique and immersive pause turns the bike tour into a cultural and sensory experience, encouraging curiosity, conversation, and shared discovery. It’s an authentic, memorable moment that strengthens group cohesion and leaves a lasting impression.

A perfect corporate experience 

Accessible, original, and deeply rooted in the local territory, this activity is particularly suited for groups and corporate teams:

- fostering connections through informal exchanges

- sharing an authentic, bonding experience

- discovering the Annecy region through its traditions

Taylor-made organisation

Departures can be arranged from Annecy city center or directly from your lakeside accommodation. We take care of delivering the bikes.

The duration of the activity can be adapted to the timing you have for this: go for a ride alongside the lake 2 hours or more), or for the whole loop (about 4 hours)!

Optional: Add a Savoyard aperitif to complete the experience with a gourmet touch!
