Sortie rapide à vélo de Genève à Le Grand-Saconnex

This quick and scenic ride takes you from the lively center of Geneva up to the leafy suburb of Le Grand-Saconnex. Starting out near Lake Geneva, you’ll meander through mostly quiet roads (so it’s a super relaxed spin), gradually making your way north. Most of the route is on smooth asphalt with just a hint of cobblestone—enough to remind you you’re in a European city, but nothing too bumpy for your bike.

Geneva is known for its international flair—UN headquarters, iconic Jet d’Eau, plenty of great cafés. As you climb about 90 meters in elevation, you’ll leave the city vibes behind for the greener, calmer feel of Le Grand-Saconnex. This area is famous for hosting the Palexpo convention center and, fun fact, it’s right by the airport—so you might spot some planes on your way in!

Great for a morning commute, a Sunday ride, or just a change of scenery, this route keeps things peaceful and stress-free. Don’t forget to stop and enjoy the view!
