Highlights
The department is, of course, famous for ski resorts which include such names as Chamonix, Morzine, Les Gets and Samoëns. And then, of course, there's Mont Blanc, which at 4,810m is the highest mountain in the Alps. On the shores of Lake Geneva, the spa town of Évian-les-Bains gives its name to the mineral water which is bottled from the local spring. Haute-Savoie is also home to the rather unusually named Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval, which is known for its large limestone amphitheatre and the Cascade du Rouget waterfall, nicknamed the Queen of the Alps.
