Why choose Genthod for a family outing?
The Bains de Saugy summarize the art of living on the right bank: a simple and friendly beach, where you can lay out your laundry on the lawn before taking a dip in clear water. The place remains human-sized, making it a favored spot for families with young children — you can easily keep an eye on your little ones.
Swimming is often followed by a stroll along the shores or a snack by the lake, watching sailboats and CGN boats go by. And if the urge to explore strikes you, the Creux-de-Genthod and its nearby boats are worth a look.
For a summer afternoon without organization or ticketing, Genthod is a safe bet: Lake Geneva, a dock, children jumping into the water — sometimes that's all you need.
