A tour of the lake

Posted by robbieknocks 6 June 2007

Flying into Geneva, I spent the next ten days on a grand tour of the lake.

After one night in Geneva I hired a touring bike and set off with my tent round the Swiss side of the lake with stops at Nyon, Montreux and Lausanne.

Had some amazing lunches by the ports and decided to get a boat back to Geneva. Then found a company doing tours on the French side of the lake, even up into the Alps, which is still amazing even without the snow.
