At the end of winter 2021, I went on a hike to Rochers de l’Aigle, above Bonneville.

When I visited the Château des Sires de Faucigny in Bonneville last summer, I also took the opportunity to walk around the town and crossed the Arve river a couple of times.
Château des Sires de Faucigny (Bonneville)
The Château des Sires de Faucigny is a medieval castle in Bonneville, Haute-Savoie. I went there after visiting the Tour des Comtes de Genève in La Roche-sur-Foron nearby. It was built in the 13th century to serve as the seat of the Lords of Faucigny. The castle then passed under the control of the house of Savoie and became a jail until the 20th century. It was recently renovated and opened to the public for the first time this year. The two large towers, the rampart between them and the courtyard can be visited. Entrance is free.
Hike to Le Môle
At the end of spring, I went on a hike to Le Môle, in the Chablais Alps above Bonneville.
