River that rises in the Swiss Alps and passes through Lake Geneva to southeastern France (5)

I believe the answer is:

rhone

(Other definitions for rhone that I've seen before include "River running from the Swiss Alps to the Mediterranean" , "12 wine region" , "Swiss-French river" , "French river from Alps to Mediterranean" , "Major French river, rising in Switzerland" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
