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.
