La Lechere

The landscape around La Léchère is a steep, forested Alpine section of the Tarentaise Valley, which has shaped both the settlement pattern and the local economy. The commune lies beside the Isère, between Moûtiers and Albertville, in Savoie’s northern Alps. La Léchère-les-Bains is a long-established thermal resort, with spa activity based on local mineral waters. The road climbing towards the Col de la Madeleine has also made the area familiar to cycling followers; the pass has featured repeatedly in the Tour de France. Smaller hamlets extend across the slopes, while the valley floor carries the main transport route towards the Tarentaise resorts.
