Top 3 in Top 10 most popular tourist destinations in Switzerland.
One of the largest lakes in Europe, Lake Geneva sits on the Rhone River on the border between France and Switzerland. In addition to the city of Geneva, most destinations in the Lake Geneva area are in the Swiss canton of Vaud or the French Haute Savoie region. The geography is diverse, with the Jura Mountains to the north, a hilly plain in the center and in the southwestern Alps. The main attraction here are the elegant cities and towns around the lake, opportunities for skiing and hiking in both mountains, and of course the main lake.
