Among the communes of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Chamousset stands out for its position where the Arc meets the Isère, at the meeting point of the Combe de Savoie and Maurienne valleys. This Savoyard commune lies on the transport axis following the Arc toward the high Alps and the French-Italian border, while the broader Isère valley leads west toward Chambéry. Surrounding slopes create a marked transition from cultivated valley floor to Alpine terrain. Chamousset belongs to historic Savoy, which became part of France in 1860.
