Challes les Eaux - just south of the Savoy regional capital of Chambéry, situated between Grenoble and Geneva. CSVVA (Centre Savoyard de Vol à Voile Alpin) is the club at Challes.
Predominantly a winch site, they have 41(!!)club
gliders, ranging from 2 x ASH-25, to an ASK-6CR.
Proximity to many rocky ridges gives access to the
Alps in good conditions.
