Departure from Palézieux (Vaud)
A circular walk that starts on the Vaud plateau and ends overlooking Lake Geneva on the heights of Lavaux, a region listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There is a short stretch of tarmac road at the start before crossing the forests of Mont Cheseau and then those of Mont Pèlerin, leading to a magnificent panorama: almost the entire length of Lake Geneva and the French Alps opposite. This walk offers moderate shade and is therefore best avoided during heatwaves; the month of May usually offers lovely fields of daffodils for enthusiasts.

Departure from Blonay (Vaud)
A classic destination in the region offering magnificent views of Lake Geneva and the surrounding mountains. The route is particularly recommended in spring and autumn. In summer, this largely shaded route limits excessive exposure to the sun. The hike is ideal for family activities, including a visit to the AstroPléiades educational site.
