From the jetties at Morges, visitors can enjoy the view of Mont Blanc, the highest summit in the Alps, if the weather is fine.
Although Mont Blanc is over 80 km away on the other side of Lake Geneva and across the frontier, this famous peak can be seen very clearly from the jetties at Morges if the weather is fine. So it is not surprising that the lakeshore promenade between the landing-stage and the castle have taken the name of "Quais du Mont-Blanc".
Rising to over 4800 meters, Mont Blanc is the highest summit in the Alpine range and in all of Western Europe. It is silhouetted majestically between Mont Ouzon and Mont Billiat, two French peaks which are not as high but are closer to the shores of the lake.
