Hiking: Marais des Bidonnes and Canal de Crans

A pleasant walk across a board walk on stilts through a marshy area with information boards on the flora and fauna. Start: Divonne les Bains-Pont des Iles Signs: PR-Yellow Access: By car: join Divonne and head towards Nyon, parking at the end of the lake in front of the "Forest-Land" leisure park. By bus: TER line Bellegarde-Divonne On the way: Gentian, aurochs, beavers, alders, reed beds, oaks Heritage: since 1265, the Coppet Canal has carried some of the water from the Versoix (or Divonne) to the communes of Boggy and Commugny. Did you know? The beaver is our country's largest rodent, weighing between 20 and 25 kilos as an adult and measuring between 1m and 1.20m (including a 30-centimetre flat tail). It is an excellent swimmer, capable of staying underwater for 10 minutes. It consumes plants, small branches and bark. Its habitat, made up of branches and trunks, resembles a burrow accessible through an underwater sluice. In May, the female gives birth to 1 to 3 young. Route description : Turn right at the edge of the Crans canal in the direction of the carrefour des étangs, and follow a succession of gratings and footbridges along and over the canal. Further on, walkers are invited to join an observation post on the right. Retrace your steps and continue to follow the yellow markings. When you reach a single-arch bridge, cross it and walk along a pond, joining a wide path leading to the "carrefour des étangs" (Alt.472m). Take a farm road, then a left-hand path along the road from Divonne to Crassy. At a traffic circle, keep left and return to the starting bridge.

Voltaire's Château

Voltaire's Château

Voltaire hosted many personalities in his home for almost twenty years. As he declared himself the "innkeeper of Europe", he made Ferney the place to be for an elite who flocked from all over Europe. The last 20 years of Voltaire's life were spent in Ferney. The castle was completely rebuilt. He laid out the park, not reluctant to work the land with his own hands. From Ferney, Voltaire continued his fight against intolerance and wrote some 6,000 letters, the Dictionnaire Philosophique, des tragédies... As well as giving theatrical performances at the castle, he also received many visitors. His guests came from all over the Europe of the Enlightenment. To visit Voltaire's castle is to come and meet the playwright, the committed philosopher, with a lively and generous spirit, provocative and tolerant, with a humour that is sometimes fierce. The collection of Voltaire's works and objects is displayed in a setting that keeps the traces of his presence. In the park, take a diversion under the bower where Voltaire loved to stroll with his guests. When Voltaire, aged 65, acquired the lordship of Ferney in 1758, he described himself as having found a "miserable hamlet" where he had the house of his last years built, following the construction site closely. There Voltaire received many personalities for almost twenty years. As he declared himself the "innkeeper of Europe", then Ferney became the place to be for an elite who came from all over Europe. Of this remote retreat, he became an outspoken critic of the injustice of society and defended the victims of political and religious intolerance. He carried on working actively on his literary work and published, among others, the Philosophical Dictionary, the Treaty on Tolerance, several tragedies and plays. The number of letters he wrote from Ferney reached some 6,000... Invested with the philosophical principles that nourished the spirit of the Age of Enlightenment, alternately town planner, entrepreneur and patron, he transformed the lordship of Ferney: drained marshes, construction of houses, cobbling of the streets, public fountain, construction of a new church, craftsmanship development... When Voltaire wanted to see Paris again and died there in 1778, the hamlet of a few inhabitants turned into a prosperous city of a thousand souls for a long time.
