The view of the lake is magnificent. Cycling here in good weather, you feel like you're in Italy or the South of France.

This place was the residence of Saint Francis de Sales and is still a place of pilgrimage today. Exceptional view of Lake Geneva, the Jura Mountains and the Pre-Alps.

Yvoire is one of the Most Beautiful Villages in France. Its medieval heritage, its label as a flowery town, and its privileged position on the banks of Lake Geneva have something to do with it. Take the time to stroll through its historic center and get lost on the trails of the many natural spaces of this town in the Thonon-les-Bains agglomeration.

Nestled in the heart of the mountains, this viewpoint offers a magnificent panorama of the sparkling waters of the lake, surrounded by green hills and Alpine peaks in the background. On a clear day, you can admire the vast expanse of Lake Geneva and the towns that line its shores.
