Easy
Departure from La Muraz (Haute-Savoie)
A pleasant walk starting from La Croisette, with a loop route at the top of Salève, on a short section of the "Balcon du Léman". The Salève des Pitons (or Pitons) is not the most spectacular part of Mont Salève, but it nevertheless offers exceptional views (the Franco-Genevan basin, the Jura mountain range, the Geneva harbour/Petit-lac, the Vaud and Valais Alps, the Arve Valley, the Chablais, the Mont Blanc range, the Bornes, the Aravis, etc.).

Departure from Étrembières (Haute-Savoie)
Starting from Pas de l’Échelle, a lovely route that ends at the upper station of the Salève cable car, passing through the Vallon de Monnetier, the Bûcherons trail, the top of the Petite Gorge and the summit plateau.
A hike featuring some very exposed sections, reserved for those with absolutely no fear of heights, and requiring the utmost caution.

Moderate
Departure from Chêne-Bougeries (Canton of Geneva)
A short bike ride in the Geneva countryside. Ideal for families.
It starts gently on a section of the greenway, which you then leave before returning to it briefly before the finish.
The ride passes through Chêne-Bourg, then heads into Champel, Bout du Monde and Veyrier, before completing a beautiful circular loop through the countryside. The ride then continues to Thonex, Puplinge, Choulex and Vandoeuvres. Be patient at the end, as the roads are narrow and you may encounter motorists travelling in the opposite direction on one-way streets.
