Beautiful view point! There is Lao restaurant but it's closed due to covid. Too bad they don't sell at least hot drinks and some little snacks. The breathtaking panoramic views from 1550m elevation showcase the stunning Alpine landscape perfectly. Despite limited food services, the natural beauty and accessible location make Belvédère du Revard a must-visit destination. Bring your own refreshments to fully enjoy this spectacular viewpoint in the Savoie mountains.

Amazing view of Aix-les-bains and the surroundings. Accessible by car (1550m high). Many hiking trails from there. A tree top walk and a Cross Country ski resort nearby. The Belvédère du Revard offers incredible 360-degree views that make the journey worthwhile. The convenient car access eliminates the need for strenuous hiking, making it accessible for families. The proximity to multiple outdoor activities makes it an excellent base for exploring the Savoie region.

Beautiful view point after great bike ride up from Gresy sur Aix. The 600m elevation gain provides a challenging yet rewarding cycling experience through scenic Alpine terrain. The panoramic views from Belvédère du Revard make every pedal stroke worth the effort. The winding mountain roads offer cyclists stunning vistas of the surrounding valleys and peaks, creating an unforgettable outdoor adventure in the heart of Savoie.

What a beautiful place to go to: for the views, of course, but also for walks, for activities, to watch paragliders (or have a jump)... It is somewhere I visit over and over again on my holiday and we always discover something new. The 600m elevation gain offers spectacular panoramic vistas of the surrounding Alps. There is ample parking too, it is easy to find. The variety of outdoor activities available makes it perfect for adventure seekers. I will be back!
