Discover Les Mémises

One of the most beautiful views of Lake Geneva! Take in the breathtaking panorama from this unusual gondola ride.

Discovering Mémises

From Thollon-les-Mémises, enjoy a 360° view of Lake Geneva, the peaks of the Chablais region and the Swiss mountains across the lake. You can reach the Pic des Mémises by gondola or by hiking (approx. 3 hours’ walk).

A breathtaking view

With its 1,674-metre summit, the Mémises mountain offers 360-degree views of Switzerland and the Jura mountains. A famous paragliding spot, the top of the gondola is the starting point for numerous hikes and ski slopes in winter. You’ll also find a restaurant called “Les Balcons du Lac” for refreshments and a bite to eat.

A multi-activity trail, accessible to all, allows you to walk your four-legged companions on a pretty loop between meadows and forests. The shade of the trees will be your best friend in midsummer! In winter, take the same path on foot or snowshoes.

Our favorite Pic des Mémises

In summer, while more motivated climbers set off to conquer the Pic Boré to admire the scenery from even greater heights, shorter walkers follow the balconies to reach the Pic des Mémises
(a 15-20 minute walk from the top of the gondola!).

Fast, accessible, with a magnificent view? We say yes!
