Le Grand-Bornand

Le Grand-Bornand has served as a pastoral settlement in the Bornes massif since the Middle Ages. In Haute-Savoie's Aravis range, its territory follows the Borne valley and includes both the historic village and the higher Chinaillon district. Alpine cattle farming still shapes the commune and supplies milk for Reblochon, the washed-rind cheese traditionally made in this part of Savoie. Wood-built farmhouses and barns recall that working heritage, while skiing and summer hiking link the settlement to the surrounding mountain slopes.
