Cholonge

Lac de Laffrey defines the setting of Cholonge — the lake lies between Cholonge and Laffrey, bringing swimming, sailing and seasonal visitors to this upland part of the Matheysine. The village stands south of Grenoble, with the Grand Serre massif rising to the east and a broad plateau giving the area an open, rural character. Nearby, at Laffrey’s Prairie de la Rencontre, Napoleon encountered royal troops during his 1815 return from Elba, an episode associated with the Route Napoléon. Cholonge is a calm base for the lake and surrounding mountain roads rather than a resort town.
