Last Saturday, a group of students from the Duke program visited Mont Salève.
It was a happy trip. We separated into two groups. One hiked up to the peak, the other took the cable bus. I was in the cable group because Mont Salève looked pretty tough. It only took us probably 5 minutes to arrive at the top of Mont Salève .There was a great view on the peak. We saw all Geneva, including the Jet d'eau and Palais des Nations. Some people did mountain biking and parachute jumping there. We hiked a little and then sat on the grass, enjoying the Saturday afternoon sunshine.
Visiting Mont Salève is a great way to kill a Saturday.
