The Communauté de Communes du Lac d'Aiguebelette has collaborated with Savoyard author and illustrator David GAUTIER. In his latest children's book, Contes Alpins, published by Éditions Boule de Neige, the prehistoric sites of Lac d'Aiguebelette take centre stage! Entitled "La licorne du lac d'Aiguebelette" ("The unicorn of Lake Aiguebelette"), this tale tells the story of the lake's first inhabitants from an original perspective and with a good dose of humour.
