Lights in Geneva for the end of year 2011
by grux on Dec.31, 2011, under Report
Every December, Geneva adorns itself with its lights… This brings a bit of joy in this end of afternoon when the night falls too early!
This year, no lights in the trees along the harbour : they climbed in the trees of the Old Town. It helps for changing habits.
Walking in Haute-Savoie : Lake Arvouin and Pointe d’Arvouin
by grux on Jun.13, 2011, under Report
Without intending to be chauvinistic about my region, I love my region (Savoie / Alpes du Nord). Indeed, although I do not go on holiday at the other end of the France or the world (I’m not going further than the Portugal), I enjoy every time the beautiful landscapes Alps offer me: what makes the holidays to do their effect
I performed the walk that I present here in June 2011 (I’m a little late in sorting my pictures).
Walking in Haute-Savoie : to the Mont Baron
by grux on May.08, 2011, under Report
During my summer vacation 2010, I resumed with my friend small mountain walks. After the Mont Forchat, with a different of heightof about 150m, (and with a cheese fondue in the stomach) and the Grande Pointe des Journées, with its difference of height of 287 m, we decide to keep the same difficulty.
The choice is a walk to the Mont Baron above Bernex (in France) and near the Dent d’Oche.
Walk in Haute-Savoie : Grande Pointe des Journées
by grux on Mar.27, 2011, under Report
Here is an idea of hiking with in the end, some nice pictures of mountain landscapes: a little walk to the Grande Pointe des Journées (1722 m). It is an alternative (very) easy to the Mont Billiat (1894 m) to hikers and without great physical condition like me
.
The Grande Pointe des Journées, with the Mont Billiat, is part of the small mountain range surrounded by the valley Brevon and the valley Aulps, and closes the valley Bellevaux.
Walk in the snow at the beginning of the year
by grux on Jan.31, 2011, under Report
Flashback to the very beginning of the year : after the snowfall of Christmas which I took advantage… for taking a few pictures, the following week didn’t bring much more (if any). In mountains, at medium altitude, it wasn’t just enough.
The week after Christmas, I stayed home and under the stratus (people will recognize the Geneva Region
): shame on me over the weather was fine !
On 3 January 2011, I’m been out late in the afternoon for a short walk to enjoy some snow and the beautiful light…
