Description

A walk between Cluses and Thyez along the Arve river. On the greenway, a route specially dedicated to cyclists and pedestrians, you can walk in complete safety.

Step by step guide: From Cluses to Thyez: 45 minutes From the Espace Carpano car park, take the path to the left of the car park entrance to cross the stone bridge. Follow the path to the right, go under the tunnel and continue straight along the Arve. At the stop sign (opposite the Feu Vert store), turn right before the stop sign and go down under the bridge. Follow the path. At the footbridge, continue straight ahead. At the next bridge, take the steps on your left (before the bridge), then cross the Pont de la Sardagne while remaining on the sidewalk. For cyclists: turn left before going down under the bridge, pass between the white building and the garages, go around the building on the right, to get back to the bridge. Once you have crossed the bridge, take the path on your right (just before the bus shelter). Then get back onto the greenway. Turn right to pass under the bridge. Continue on the tarmac road to Lake Thyez. Return: 45 minutes Take the opposite route. At the footbridge, continue straight on the tarmac road.
