Hiking loop: via Romana

From the Eluiset parking lot, take the road east then turn right to reach the hamlet called “Champ de la Croix”. Then follow to the right the old Roman road that once crossed the Genevois plain. It will lead you to Maison Neuve. In the heart of this hamlet, you will have the opportunity to refresh yourself or have lunch at the communal inn of Vers, set up in the old fruit dairy. Continue your path along the pedestrian track, parallel to the road, and discover the Church of Vers. Mentioned since the 13th century, it stands out with its bulb-shaped bell tower, both original and rare in the Vuache region. The village center, with its farms marked by time, is pleasant to visit.
Variant to access the chapel “Notre Dame des Voyageurs” (marked): Opposite the church, take the road that climbs to the upper part of the village, then turn left onto the travelers’ path. At the hamlet called “Sous le Plan” you have the option to join the hiking trail (GR) “Balcon du Léman” to the right. Otherwise, continue straight to the road, which is then taken to the left (caution) to reach the chapel “Notre-Dame des Voyageurs”. From the top of this oratory, an impressive panorama of the Geneva plain surrounded by the Jura and Salève massifs awaits you. A picnic area is available. Retrace your steps to return to the church of Vers. Then take the small road of Pré Paradis below the church, which will lead you to the Bois du Ban. This former Thouvet wood once belonged to the Pomier Carthusians. Back at the Bois du Ban, return to the Eluiset via the marked path that runs through the undergrowth and then through the fields.
