Geneva Tourism

Surrounded by stunning landscapes, Geneva offers a variety of natural retreats for outdoor enthusiasts. The Salève mountain, located just outside the city, is a popular destination for hiking and paragliding, providing breathtaking views over the lake and city. Numerous parks, like the Parc des Bastions and Parc La Grange, offer peaceful green spaces for walking, jogging, or simply relaxing. The shores of Lake Geneva and the Rhône River banks are ideal for biking and leisurely strolls, all while taking in the beautiful scenery.
In autumn, Geneva becomes even more enchanting as the vibrant fall colors create a picturesque backdrop for cycling through the city’s parks and along its scenic lakeside.
In the summer, Geneva truly shines with its prime location on Lake Geneva. You can enjoy a refreshing swim at one of the many lakeside beaches or rent pedalos, stand-up paddleboards (SUPs), and kayaks to explore the water.
For those looking to venture further, the nearby Alps are just a short trip away, offering world-class hiking and breathtaking alpine views. Many hiking trails can be reached from Geneva’s central station in under an hour, making it easy to enjoy nature just outside the city.


Geneva Tourism is responsible for promoting the city and surrounding region, positioning it as a diverse and attractive destination for travelers from around the world.

This route has an ambitious profile with more than 100 kilometers on the clock for 1,250 meters of positive elevation gain. The entire route is quite rolling, the elevation gains being condensed over a few kilometers, which promises some beautiful, fairly steep sections.

This route starts from Geneva-Cornavin station and ends at Bellegarde-sur-Valserine station. From there, you can easily return to Geneva by train. The most daring can even consider completing the loop by taking the EuroVelo 17. But be careful of the weather, you should allow a good three hours more

This Tour is in some ways the Geneva region's mountain pass route: from the city centre, the route follows a long and gradual climb marked by several stages. And as you will have understood, at each stage there is a pass. The distance remains accessible, and despite the positive elevation gain of 1250

This route starting from the city centre cleverly plays with the roads and passable paths in the middle of the vineyards to offer a beautiful immersion by bike in the vineyards of Genevois. With these 48 kilometres and 500 metres of positive elevation gain, this route is intended to be accessible to

This Tour is inspired by Geneva's wine-growing tradition. The Romans were the first to detect the potential of the Geneva hillsides for growing vines. They were visionaries because more than 2,000 years later, the crops have continued. Having suffered for a time from the competition of the fame of French
