Bike rental in Annecy from €9

The lake tour is about 42 kilometers, most of which is on a flat greenway separate from the road. Allow 3 to 4 hours at a leisurely pace with stops.

For most people, a hybrid bike is largely sufficient: the route is flat, and at €9 for 4 hours, it's the simplest option. This is what most people rent for their first tour.

Take an electric bike if you don't ride much during the year, if you're going with someone who has a different pace than yours, or if you want to extend towards Doussard, the Col de la Forclaz or Semnoz without turning the day into a trial: see the electric bike rental Annecy page.

With children too young to pedal 42 kilometers, a cargo bike is what you need; it safely carries two on the greenway: see the cargo bike rental Annecy page.

A piece of advice that doesn't necessarily benefit us: if it's your first outing of the year, cycle to Duingt or Doussard and return the same way. The full tour is not mandatory, and a successful half-day is better than a tour finished at nightfall.

Allow 3 to 4 hours for the 42 kilometers, at a leisurely pace including stops. Taking the time to have lunch and swim makes it a full day. As the greenway is flat for most of the route, the tour is accessible without special training.

There is no single average price: two things make up the bill, the duration and the model. Bike rental in Annecy starts at €9 for 4 hours on a city bike and goes up to €59 for an electric cargo bike, with decreasing rates from 24 hours, which significantly changes the calculation for a stay. Helmet and lock are included, with no booking fees or supplements: the price displayed is the one you pay.

Yes, the minimum duration is 4 hours. This is enough to cycle around the lake at a leisurely pace, or for a half-day on the greenway, without having to pay for a full day. There is no maximum duration.

In July and August, yes, it is highly recommended. The fleet turns over quickly in high season, especially for electric and cargo bikes, which are limited in number. Off-season, a visit to the agency on the same day usually works.
