Enjoy the ultimate city break in Geneva this summer and discover a wealth of fun-filled outdoor activities right on your doorstep. With Geneva Tourism's exclusive 'Summer Holiday' offer, make the most of your stay and enjoy 50% off hotel bookings over the next three months!
No visit to Geneva is complete without exploring Lake Geneva, one of Europe's largest lakes and Geneva's hotspot for outdoor activity in the summer. Discover a range of adrenaline-pumping activities, including sailing, canoeing, paddle boarding and windsurfing at Tropical Corner, or opt for a more relaxing experience at Bains des Pâquis, Geneva's very own urban beach and one of the top urban swimming spots in Switzerland. The 2 CHF entry, hammam, Turkish baths and sunbathing decks make this the most popular chill spot in the city. Alternatively, experience Bains des Pâquis's dance festival Les Aubes at sunrise, or explore the lake at sunset and enjoy an evening cruise or a paddle boat tour with a delicious sundowner on deck.
For thrill-seekers, take things up a notch and hike or bike to the top of Mont Salève where you will be rewarded with panoramic views of the surrounding Swiss Alps and the city's most iconic landmarks, including St Pierre Cathedral and the Jet d'Eau. Those with a head for heights can choose to paraglide off the top, or alternatively the Mont Saléve cable car offers a more leisurely descent. Geneva is also home to The Parc des Evaux, the largest urban park in Switzerland and a treetop adventure park with the three longest parallel zip lines in Europe!
After a fun-filled day, bask in the sunshine at one of the many lakeside bars, including the trendy La Terrasse or local legend; Tropical, popular with Geneva's watersport lovers. For those that have late night energy, head to the free open-air cinema “Ciné Transat” or enjoy electronic beats at the free concert “Music In Summer” that runs from 5 July to 22 August.
Enjoy all of this without breaking the bank with Geneva Tourism's Exclusive 'Summer Holiday' Offer and enjoy 50% off your stay in one of Geneva's best hotels; whether for 1 night, a weekend or for the whole week! Visitors will also be able to enjoy free public transport with the Geneva Transport Card, ensuring a hassle-free weekend of exploring.
