A family-friendly and slightly sporty walk through pastures and villages. Enjoy the beautiful views of the Mémises, Mont César and the Dent d'Oche, as well as Lake Geneva.
This discovery trail allows you to discover the natural and cultural riches of Mont Benand.
Magnificent views follow one another over Lake Geneva, the Jura, the Mémises, the Bernex valley with its peaks (Dent d'Oche, Mont César, Pic de Boré, Pelluaz, Chesnay) and the Gavot plateau. Classified as a Unesco Geopark site, explanatory panels help you discover all the treasures this area has to offer. You'll discover the Croix du Bénand and, with a little detour, the Mont Bénand barns, witnesses to the past and to life in the mountain pastures of yesteryear.
The tour of Mont Bénand is a very busy itinerary, with the presence of herds. For this reason, dogs must be kept on a leash and droppings must be collected. Please keep to the paths and keep your garbage in a safe place.
Be properly equipped and shod.
