Set in the upper Abondance Valley of the French Chablais, Abondance is a community shaped by the Dranse d’Abondance and alpine pastureland. The village gave its name to Abondance AOP cheese, reflecting a local farming tradition in which dairy herds remain important. At its centre, the Abbey of Abondance, founded in the 12th century, preserves a medieval cloister noted for its painted decoration. Roads through the valley lead towards the wider Portes du Soleil ski area, while footpaths extend into surrounding woodland and high pastures.
