Location

Parc Charles Bosson is located on Avenue d'Albigny along the eastern shore of Lake Annecy in Annecy, Haute-Savoie, southeastern France, forming part of the scenic lakeside promenade about 2 km south of the city center's Vieille Ville. This 2-hectare landscaped park, named after a former mayor, features lush lawns, over 600 flower varieties in seasonal displays, a distinctive lakeside gazebo, and shaded paths ideal for strolls amid Belle Époque architecture remnants.​ Directly adjacent lies Plage d'Albigny beach for swimming and sunbathing, with the historic Impérial Hotel casino nearby offering waterfront dining and events. A pleasant walk northward connects to Jardins de l'Europe, Pont des Amours, and Le Pâquier esplanade, while bus stops like Salomons and Montremont provide easy access back to Annecy's old town canals and Palais de l'Isle.​
