Étrembières has served as a settlement on the route between Geneva and the Arve valley in historic Savoy since the Middle Ages. The commune stands on the French-Swiss border, where the Arve flows beneath the limestone slopes of the Salève. At Pas de l’Échelle, the Téléphérique du Salève departs from Étrembières and climbs towards the mountain, connecting the low valley with its higher ground. Close to Geneva yet set among riverbanks, transport routes and steep hillsides, the town has a distinctly frontier character.
