The sedimentary rock formation of Pointe d'Aveneyre rises to 2,026 meters above sea level, offering views across Lake Geneva and the Swiss Prealps.
The geological formation of Pointe d'Aveneyre dates back millions of years when sedimentary deposits compressed and lifted during the Alpine mountain building process.
