View of Lake Geneva and the Alps

Highlight • Viewpoint

Lake Geneva, Lac Léman in French, is the largest inland lake in Central Europe. From this vantage point you have a great view of the crescent-shaped lake, on the horizon the peaks of the Alps line up. Just fantastic! Incidentally, the Celts called the lake "Lem an", which means something like big water. Hence the name Lac Léman.
