Saint-Félix can be explored through a range of highlights: the Étangs de Crosagny hiking trail starts in the village, the market takes place on Fridays, and the Maison forte de la Sauffaz adds a cultural and historical dimension. There is also the Crosagny-Beaumont-Braille nature area and a monthly film programme. This gives you a choice of nature, market visits and cultural events when planning your trip.
A protected room in the Maison forte de la Sauffaz
The Maison forte de la Sauffaz is partially listed as a historic monument. The protected part is the room on the first floor, with its wall paintings. This means a clearly defined interior space is at the heart of the monument’s protected status. If you want to consider built heritage as well as nature and village life during your stay, this building offers a specific point of interest.
Friday market at Place de l’Église
The Saint-Félix market takes place on Fridays from 4 to 7 p.m. at Place de l’Église. Around ten producers and traders offer fruit and vegetables, charcuterie, cheese and fish, as well as catering options, saffron products, Italian dishes and honey. The selection therefore ranges from fresh food to prepared dishes and regional specialties. If the market is part of your plans, the Friday time slot gives you a specific time to plan your visit around.
Hiking trail and wetlands
The Étangs de Crosagny hiking trail starts in Saint-Félix, is 6.1 km long and has 30 m of elevation gain. The distance and elevation gain give you specific details to help fit the hike into your day. Check the route’s operating details before setting out.
The Crosagny-Beaumont-Braille nature area extends across Albens, Bloye and Saint-Félix and is part of the Natura 2000 network of wetlands in the Albanais. Events and environmental awareness initiatives raise the profile of the area with the public. The hiking trail and these environmental activities offer different ways to explore nature: one through a designated route, the other through events and awareness-raising.
Plan your trip by bus and Cinébus
Bus route 40 regularly serves Saint-Félix. It runs between Entrelacs, Albens railway station and Annecy bus station. As public transport services may change, it is advisable to check the current timetable before travelling.
Cinébus also offers a recurring cultural event: screenings in Saint-Félix take place once a month in the village hall at 70 Place de l’Église. There are screenings for young audiences at 5 p.m. and for adults at 8:30 p.m. If you are planning to attend a particular film night, check the current programme for your chosen date.
Local culture and events
The Saint-Félix Notre Village association organizes two local events each year. The 12th Fête de la musique took place on Saturday, June 20, 2026. Several different music groups performed, and children were also catered for. Check the relevant announcements for future dates.
The Brocante is also part of the recurring events calendar. Its 42nd edition took place on Sunday, August 30, 2025; admission was free, and around 280 professional and private exhibitors took part. These details refer to that edition. Another facet of village life, La Belle Idée stands for sharing, trust and goodwill and is connected with local cultural life and social cohesion.
