Departure from Vailly (Haute-Savoie) (Haute-Savoie)
An isolated peak rising to an altitude of nearly 1,900 metres, Mont Billiat offers a splendid 360° panorama and is a lovely hiking destination. Throughout the ascent, there is an extensive view of Lake Geneva.
The (optional) ascent of the Grande Pointe des Journées is a challenging addition reserved for experienced hikers.
