The geological path is a very well marked path that starts in Coin, it goes through the Orjobet cave to the top of the Salève. There are 10 boards that can be found on this path. This geological trail is the result of a Franco-Swiss scientific and financial collaboration. Its aim is to make the geological riches and some botanical features of the Salève available to the public, especially schools. Information on consoles and tablets characterize the route.
