The Tour du Môle is a trip to the heart of Faucigny, a medieval province which has long dreamed of extending to Geneva and which ended up integrating the House of Savoy in 1355.
If it did not belong to the limestone Prealps, the Môle could be taken for a volcano. It has even often been nicknamed the Fujiyama of the Alps. Its conical shape, which majestically dominates the lower valley of the Arve, makes it a signal mountain. Surrounded by roads and isolated between Chablais, Salève and Aravis, the Môle lends itself naturally to the cycle touring circuit.
Departing from Cluses, a pleasant greenway laid out along the Arve and then the railway will take you to Marignier. After 2km with caution on the RD19 continue towards the hills of Ayse via the RD6. Cross the center of Bonneville, and travel 2km on the 1205 departmental road before going up to Faucigny via the Côte d'Hyot (RD12) and continue to Marcellaz. Between Marcellaz and the Tour, don't deprive yourself of a break at on the edge of Lac du Môle, shaded and equipped with picnic benches. Then, leave the RD907 to enter St-Jeoire. You will be guided to a pretty balcony road (RD308) which will take you peacefully to Marignier. The return to Cluses is via the greenway.
