Carouge Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This bridge is a very pleasant way to cross the Rhône river.

Tip by

2.16 km

The Arve is a tributary of the Rhône and crosses France and Switzerland. It is 108 km long and only a small part is in the canton of Geneva. During periods of rain, the waters of the river can rise considerably. The prettiest point is where the Arve and the Rhône join, at the Junction, in another district of the city.

Banks of the Arve at Vessy

Highlight • River

Just after the Vessy bridge. It is a beautiful, quiet place on the banks of the L'Arve river. Ideal for a quick break. The path is solid but can be muddy in rainy weather.

Vessy Dam

Highlight • Monument

While there are many pleasant spots on this hike........I thought too much of it was spent along busy roads. The last part was better and the pompage was a great picnic lunch spot

Lancy-Pont-Rouge

Highlight • Rest Area

We exit directly onto the northern forecourt of Lancy-Pont-Rouge station, towards the tram loop, where a fresco welcomes us.
