34 KM / RUN FOREST

Welcome to the semi-queen event of the Ecotrail Geneva, the 34 km solo or the 3-person relay!

This magnificent course offers participants a particularly wild experience, combining sporting challenges and the beauty of the landscapes. The start of this adventure is located in the farmhouse of Maison Rosset in the heart of the village of Veyrier. From the first meters, participants walk alongside the Petit-Veyrier vineyards, in a rural and bucolic atmosphere. The route will quickly take you to the border towards the French department of Haute-Savoie and this is where your mountain adventure will begin. Mont Salève, nicknamed “the balconies of Geneva” then stands before you. This ascent from the place called Le Coin, with a particularly demanding portion of 500 D+ over 2 km, will cross the Grande Gorges cave, a magical space which offers a prehistoric universe. Arriving at the top, you will discover a breathtaking panorama. You will quickly be rewarded by the immensity of the landscapes as far as the eye can see over the Lake Geneva basin framed by the still snow-capped Alpine peaks with the prominent tip of Mont Blanc and the majestic blue of Lake Geneva. Then the runners will begin their descent, a transition through the forests of Grand Salève to reach the charming village of Monnetier where a refreshment stop will await you. On the way to the cool waters of the beaches of Lake Geneva, bypassing the Petit Salève on gentle, rolling paths to reach the border crossing point and head through the picturesque Swiss villages of the Geneva countryside. The final straight line, the greenway, will take you to the splendid La Grange Park where the view of Geneva's water sports with its sailboats and its summer atmosphere will mark the finish line of this magnificent event at the tropical corner.
