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 title of this hike sums up the route, and once you reach the heights of Salève, you can enjoy numerous views of the Genevois, Lake Geneva and the Mont Blanc massif. Please note that there are a few tricky sections between the Orjobet Cave (2) and La Corraterie (4).
