Staying in Sévrier
Check which side of the main road your accommodation occupies before booking in Sévrier. A place close to the lake on a map may still require a road crossing to reach the beach or cycle route. The former railway corridor provides a useful reference for cycling access, but the final stretch to your accommodation may climb away from it.
