Cévennes National Park
Dramatic landscapes of deep gorges and high plateaus in the southeastern Massif Central.
Annecy
Clear views of the stunning turquoise 'Lac d'Annecy' nestled against the mountain peaks.
Mont Blanc
The highest peak in Western Europe is the undisputed star of the descent on clear days.
Lake Geneva
The iconic crescent-shaped lake becomes visible during the descent into GVA.
Jet d'Eau
If landing on Runway 22, look for the famous 140-meter tall fountain in the Geneva harbor.
The right side is significantly more scenic for the Alpine descent. Sit behind the wing for unobstructed photos of Mont Blanc. For the best lighting on the mountains, afternoon flights are preferred as the sun illuminates the peaks from the west.
