If the steep streets of the old town have put you off the idea of mountain climbing, head for la Treille. It boasts the longest bench in the world (126m!). As well as a view over the Promenade des Bastions and the Place Neuve, towards Plainpalais and further west, it's also a chance to admire the Salève and Jura mountains from a distance. A seesaw and other playground equipment mean that children will also appreciate a stop at this green and shaded promenade.
