Beautiful Sights on the Way to Mediterranean Sea
Start your mini-trip in the French town of Chambéry, capital of the Duchy of Savoy and founded in XIII century. Castles, palaces, and gardens: in Chambéry, all this is in abundance. Today, you’ll drive to Plage Le Petit Travers — the best place to breathe fresh Mediterranean air and get your feet wet in the sea. In between? A road following a majestic river: the Rhone.

The starting point of the route will be a remarkable monument in Geneva called “Broken Chair”. This scenic and original art object is definitely worth seeing and taking a photo of, if you don’t have one yet.
It symbolizes the demand to sign the Convention on the Prohibition of Anti-Personnel Mines and Cluster Bombs. Take some photos of the location and carry on; there’s a long way still to go.
