Swimming

Chalet JoJo's own garden splash pool is fantastic fun in the summer for both children and adults!! 

There is also the choice of swimming in the pools (Morzine, Thonon) or lakes (Montriond, Les Gets, Anthy, Sciez, Evian, Thonon etc ...).

 

LAKES

There are many mountain lakes but some, have marked swimming areas:

Lac Montriond can be swum in but there is also a smaller lake that has a life-guard and a picnic area. It is free to swim. Les Gets Lake also has a life guard. It has a small slide for the children and costs 2-3 euros per day. Lac Leman (Lake Geneva) has many swimming areas dotted around from the family orientated to the secluded. Most are free but, where there is a life guard, there will normally be a small fee.
