Hiking : Pic des Mémises from Thollon
IGN cards
Description
A beautiful out-and-back hike from the village of Thollon-les-Mémises to the summit of the Mémises mountain. One of the most beautiful views of Lake Geneva!
The Pic des Mémises hike from Thollon will offer you a magnificent view of Lake Geneva from the summit, culminating at 1674m.
Starting from the village of Thollon-les-Mémises, you will first reach the Col de Pertuis before walking along the ridge to reach the Pic des Mémises and its exceptional panorama.
Rather sporty, this hike does not include any aerial or technical passages. Don't forget to take a picnic to the summit if you want a lunch with a view of Lake Geneva!
