Lake Geneva, also known as Leman lake, lies on the French-Swiss border. It is the largest natural lake in the Alps. A veritable inland sea in the shape of a crescent, Léman lac is located in France on its southern shore, crossing Haute-Savoie and the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. On the north side, it lies in Switzerland and stretches across several cantons: Geneva, Vaud and Valais. Multiple and majestic, Lake Geneva is a major tourist attraction. Lake Geneva benefits from a microclimate that gives it the mildness of the Riviera. The French shores of Lake Geneva are dotted with marinas such as Thonon-les-Bains, Evian and Saint-Gingolph, where you can enjoy a waterside lunch with a view of the mountains of Geneva and Haute-Savoie. Travellers are unanimous: Lake Geneva or Leman Lake, this lake is breathtakingly beautiful.

What to do around Lake Geneva

Lake Geneva offers a wide range of activities and panoramic views. Here are a few favourites, spots and the best activities to discover around Lake Geneva:

  • Admire Geneva's water jet. At a height of 140m, it expels 500 litres of water per second at a speed of 200 km/h. A must-see and unique.

  • Visit Yvoire, a medieval village dating back to the 14th century. Listed as one of the "most beautiful villages in France", Yvoire is entirely pedestrianised and offers a gentle stroll through the flower-filled alleyways dotted with craft shops.

  • Watch the sun set over Thonon-les-Bains. Take the funicular and enjoy the panoramic view over Lake Geneva. Day or night, the panorama is breathtaking.

  • To reach the Rochers-de-Naye, take the little cogwheel train from Montreux. Allow 55 minutes for the journey (or around 3 hours' ascent on foot if you're feeling sporty! At the summit, you'll find what is undoubtedly the most breathtaking panorama of Lake Geneva.

  • Visit the Château de Chillon. Switzerland's most visited historic monument, the Château de Chillon is located in Veytaux, 3 km from Montreux. Solid and imposing, it seems to float on the shore of Lake Geneva. A must-see!
