Lake Geneva is a crescent-shaped lake located between France and Switzerland. It is the largest natural lake in the Alps and Western Europe. A true inland sea, it is surrounded by the Alps and Jura mountains. Crossed by the Rhône from east to west, it offers magnificent landscapes.
Geneva, the Swiss city at its southern tip, is a diplomatic center with luxury shopping and a cobblestone old town. To the south, on the French side, is the spa town and seaside resort of Évian-les-Bains. The chic, palm-studded Swiss Riviera stretches along the north shore from Lausanne to Montreux.
