Bois de la Bâtie
A 20-hectare urban forest on a hill above the Arve, with shaded woodland trails, viewpoints and a small free animal park.
Why it made the list
The city's largest forest offers cool, natural trails and a marked off-leash zone for dogs.
Good to know before you go
Dogs must stay on leash on the paths but may run free in the specially marked zone (espace de liberté pour chiens, non clôturé) — City of Geneva rules.
Practical notes
- Keep dogs out of the animal-park enclosures
- the hilltop viewpoint overlooks the old town.
