Les Cabanes du Saleve

Les Cabanes du Saleve

Log cabins at the foot of the Salève

Presentation Practical information
Enchanting getaway on Geneva's balcony.

Finally, a place to escape and dream on the slopes of the Salève.
Between Annecy and Geneva, nestled in a wooded setting, a charming cabin perched 6m high on stilts with its jacuzzi on the terrace offers the luxury of a romantic getaway for lovers. From the Pitons cabin, the panoramic view of the Geneva basin is breathtaking. Thanks to its wood stove, the evening will be cozy in any season.

A little further away, Patrick Barbezat built the log houses he had long dreamed of. Today, three log cabins, constructed entirely of logs, can accommodate up to 4 people in a Nordic-inspired atmosphere with views of the Jura and the Geneva basin. With their green roofs, heat pumps, and wood heating, these authentic log cabins provide enchanting retreats in harmony with the environment.

An excellent starting point to explore the Salève and its region by mountain bike, Patrick will guide you to the route that suits you best. As the good weather arrives, hiking (with or without donkey companions), climbing, paragliding, golf, and water parks offer a variety of activities depending on the season (info here).
