In family, i advise you the walk of 1h30 to « La Bouchasse farm » where Virginie makes her own goat cheese and enjoy a superb landscape (my niece Léa loved it).
Sambuy reveals multiple trails for all kind of HIKERS.
You can picnic on the top and enjoy the view, or enjoy the restaurant « l’Avalanche » which is on the bottom, I personnally recommend the baked reblochon, which is fabulous.
Next to the restaurant, many activities are available to you, for the pleasure of young and old!
First suggestion on the way back : Waterfall and Seythenex Caves. (10mins)
At only 7km of La Sambuy, a great and natural site, the only cave opened To the public in Haute Savoie. An underground network with 1km of galeries and passages which 250m accessible. A 35 min guided tour with an english guide. You will enjoy The spectacular 45meter waterfall. Footbridges, staircases and slope enable visitors To walk up To the top of the waterfall.
You can fly at 40 meters high, over the waterfall by zip line ! Do it if you dare.

Second suggestion on the way back : Doussard Beaches on Annecy Lake (17 mins from the caves)
In a natural, protected environment and of greenery, the beach of sand of Doussard gives you a marvellous corner of relaxation, allowing you to use entirely edges of the lake of Annecy. Bathings and at pleasure laughs! Free watched beach in the summer from July 1st till August 31st. Paying car park near Natural Reserve “Bout du Lac Annecy”.
To the delight of the general public, the development of an educational trail, accessible to people with reduced mobility and visually impaired, allows you to discover this nature. This makes it an ideal walk for the whole family.

For the return, drive along Lake Annecy, we recommend a stopover in the Old Town to end the day well!
The visit of the Old Town of Annecy is easy since all the monuments are grouped together in the same perimeter, there is no slope so access is easy for strollers and people with reduced mobility.
Return to the campsite by the highway in 50 min.
