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.

A beautiful cycle route linking Les Eaux-Vives in Geneva to the Hilton Évian-les-Bains, mainly following the southern shore of Lake Geneva.

Between Thonon and Évian, the route follows the ViaRhôna corridor via the port of Rives, Ripaille Castle, Saint-Disdille, the Dranse delta and Amphion-les-Bains.
The route alternates between cycle paths, greenways, shared minor roads and a few urban sections. It is generally easy to cycle, but is not entirely separated from traffic.
