In Esserts-Salève, see the Romanesque chapel (1584). Super panoramic view of the Alps as you arrive from the pastures. At the cable car terminus, there is a magnificent view of Geneva. On the way back down, follow the tracks of the old funicular railway.

The path crosses pasture and meadows. Please close the gates behind you and do not damage the fences or springs. Keep your dog on a lead. Part of the route is shared with mountain bikes. Take care.
