Entre Arve et Lac
Hermance–Choulex
An outing to the magnificent Genevan countryside through the vineyards between the Arve river and the lake. From Hermance, you pass through the villages of Anières, Corsier, Gy, Jussy and Lullier to reach Choulex.
Hermance can be reached by bus or boat. From the lake, you enjoy a spectacular view over Geneva, her parks and majestic residences. Take the trail leads to Anières through the vineyards between the lake and the French border. After Corsier, you walk through the Genevan countryside known as Entre Arve et Lac.
This is horse country, for there are many riding schools along the way. Just before the village of Choulex, you will pass Le Marais du Château (the castle's marsh) nature reserve.
Along the trail, there are two dozen information points describing grape varieties and winemaking techniques. Stop at one of the picturesque terraces, taste a glass of the delicious local wine and maybe a morsel of a local product. Continue your walk and enjoy the flower-bedecked old villages and wineries which also offer local products to sample.
