  Outside the Chamonix region few books have been written in English concerning the Haute Savoie and the innumerable walking possibilities, which range from the gentle pre-Alps south of Lake Geneva in the Chablais, to the majestic peaks in the Faucigny, Haut Giffre and Lake Annecy regions. Walking in the Haute Savoie is also a guidebook giving historical background and descriptions of the different areas the walks start from, plus additional information regarding the towns and villages which can be used as a centre. 61 walks are described. There are chapters concerning how to get there, maps, equipment, walk explanations, sign posting, flora and fauna.
