Albertville
Albertville and Conflans are found in the Savoie department of the Rhone-Alpes.
It is as a mountain and ski region that Albertville is best known - it played host to the 1992 Winter Olympics. Several mountain regions are found nearby including the Bauges and the Beaufortain ranges.
The medieval part of the town, Conflans, is the attractive part, with some interesting medieval buildings.
From Conflans you overlook its "less attractive partner", modern Albertville, which is overdeveloped and rather industrial.
Albertville has easy access to outdoor activities such as mountain biking, horse-riding, walking and trekking etc
The setting is very attractive, with Albertville having a nice backdrop against the mountains.
