The town of Saint-Maurice, located on the Rhône at the end of Lake Geneva, is tucked away at the foot of a looming rock face and is known for its rich past. The place, inhabited since classical antiquity, grew into a stronghold of Christianity at the end of the 3rd century AD. The abbey, the oldest monastery in the Avondland, which has been inhabited since the beginning of its existence, is now home to about forty Augustinians and a renowned school, with about a thousand students from all over French Switzerland.

Saint-Maurice was initially the Celtic village of Acauno, [2] which attracted the attention of the Romans because of its strategic location at the entrance to the upper Rhone valley.

There is a small resting place for cyclists right on the bike path. A well has another pipe on the side to fill bottles
