Mont Blanc

The highest peak in Western Europe is frequently visible in the distance during the descent into GVA.

πŸ’§

Lake Geneva (Lac LΓ©man)

Stunning views of the crescent-shaped lake and the Jet d'Eau fountain during the final approach.

Book a window seat on the right (Seat K/F depending on aircraft) to maximize Alpine views. During the final descent, the sun is often behind you in the afternoon, providing perfect lighting for photography of Mont Blanc and the lake. Morning flights are also excellent for crisp mountain shadows.
