What You’ll See

La Jonction – Where Two Rivers Meet

One of the most striking natural wonders in Geneva, La Jonction is where the Rhône and Arve rivers merge, creating a stunning visual contrast. The milky, glacial waters of the Arve meet the deep blue Rhône, forming a spectacular division that’s a must-see for any traveler. This natural phenomenon offers an incredible photo opportunity and a moment to reflect on the power of nature right in the middle of the city.

Hidden Street Art – The Alternative Side of Geneva

Geneva is known for its elegant architecture and luxury shopping, but beneath this polished surface lies a thriving underground art scene. As we wander through lesser-known neighborhoods, you’ll discover incredible murals, graffiti, and street installations that tell stories of local culture, activism, and creativity. These artistic expressions showcase a different side of Geneva, giving you an insight into the voices and visions of its street artists.

Parc aux Animaux du Bois-de-la-Bâtie – A Natural Retreat in the City

Nestled within the Bois-de-la-Bâtie forest, this charming animal park is a peaceful escape from the urban hustle. Home to local wildlife such as deer, goats, and pigs, this small but delightful park provides a glimpse into Geneva’s commitment to nature and conservation. It’s a perfect stop to relax, breathe in the fresh air, and enjoy the tranquil surroundings.

Pointe de la Jonction – A Hidden Urban Oasis

As we continue our journey, we’ll explore Pointe de la Jonction, an urban retreat where locals come to unwind.
