Le Signal des Voirons Summit

Highlight • Summit

The Voirons signal, culminating at 1,485 meters, offers an exceptional panorama of the Alps, the Jura, and on a clear day, Mont Blanc. Accessible through the Voirons forest, this viewpoint is worth it, but the reward is breathtaking. The trails wind between fir trees and beech trees, offering glimpses of the Geneva Valley and the lake below. Perfect for a contemplative break, it is a popular site for mountain bikers and nature lovers.

The end of the road is here on a racing bike. But I can only recommend everyone to piggyback the bike (or leave it there) and climb the last 200 m up the forest path. There you have a 360 degree panoramic view that quickly makes you forget the tedious ascent and descent.
