Map of hikes around Annecy featured on the blog
Here is a map of all the hike reports around Annecy featured on this blog:
There are also some simple city walks and a few bike routes. It is possible to click on the marker and a link to the corresponding blog page will be shown on the left. In the future, I will try to add hikes to it whenever I make a new post. I have also added a link on the right side of the blog.
For convenience, here is a KML with all the hikes that can be opened in Google Earth.
I know the map looks quite messy but my former blog provider (Wordpress.com) only allowed Google Maps to be embedded so I went with Google My Maps originally. I made a new version recently but I haven’t had time yet to make it better.
