A promenade with a really long wooden bench and a decent view, but other than that nothing really special. A good pit stop if youre making your way between Geneva Old Town and Parc de Bastion, but you wont miss out much if you give this place a skip.

Very hot day, but worth the walk, as long as you’re content to visit and look and sit - nothing else to do, but a beautiful location.

This is such a beautiful place to stroll on a calm sunny day! I loved the expansiveness of the walkway. It was a lovely spot to take in the waterfront as well as take pictures.There are benches spread out to stop and really take in the beauty. If you want to reach this from the main street with the hotels, follow G Maps to get to the underpass that crosses the highway.

Lovely views, the longest bench in Europe. I think its missing something to do there.. maybe some icecream stand, or something where you can get a bite, have a walk and enjoy the views.

Situated on the edge of the geneva Old Town this promenade has the longest historical wooden bench in the world. It overlooks the parc des bastions and has picnic benches and a small playground for kids. There are also lots of trees so very pleasant on a hot day.

The Longest continous bench in the world?(my partner does our holiday research,and i cant remerber if its World or Europe).Anyway its a nice place to sit for a couple of hours,take some drinks n snacks,other people had.It overlooks "Parc Des Bastions" and the "Reformation Wall" you wont be able to see the "Wall" you need to be in the "Parc".We sat there till it went dark with the sun setting behind the mountains, it was beautiful clear sky evening.

This promenade has what is proclaimed the longest bench in the world. It is situated overlooking Parc des Bastions. You can see a lot of the city from here and if you go around sunset you might catch a really nice view.

This place is a must visit.It is here where you can find the longest bench in the world at 120,00+ meters long and apart from that record, the beautiful panoramic view of this side of geneva and the famous Parc des Bastions is a wonderful treat.And when in that area, leave a quick HELLO to the Official Chestnut Tree that marks the start of springtime once her first bud appears!

I stumbled upon this place on my way to Papon cafe. I first noticed the statue and then the lookout over Bastion Park. It is located right above the reformation wall in Bastion Park (which is also another interesting sight to see). It was night time when I went so I didnt really notice the bench, just thought it was a railing.Quite a nice view of the city from up here and the walk is quite nice particularly through old town, with the cobbled streets and stone buildings.

A promenade on the top of the hill of the Old Town that offers great views of the Mont Salève on the one side and the Park Bastions and the banking district Hollande on the other (includes Grand Theatre de Genève and Place Neuveis famous for two things - one of the longest benches in the world (120 metresand an official chestnut tree that marks the start of spring in Geneva. The bench was installed in 1767 as a symbol of peace as before the promenade was a military watching post. Since then the hill had become a meeting place of the entire city as people did not walk along the lakeside back then since paths had not been installed yet. The old chestnut tree (there have been three altogether since 1818 when the tradition started), at the end of the promenade near Baudet Tower, has been recently replaced with a new fourth one. Each year when the tree opens its first bud the spring officially arrives in town. Sometimes the first bud is observed to open in January and sometimes end of April. When days become warmer and sunnier you can also find some books left on the bench to pick up and take home to read.

Its a bench, a big bench. Only knew it was there from The Amazing Race, but other than being a great achievement "Sat on Europes Longest Wooden Bench" nothing much more to it. Great view from there. Also plenty of room to lay down for a nap.

Another favourite spots of mine. This is a large terrace above the "Parc des Bastions" with nice views over the "Salève" (on the leftand the "Jura" (on the rightmountains. It is very nice to relax there. Moreover, you can sit on the longest bench in the world.There is also a fountain and free WIFI there.

This promenade is a really nice walk in the center of the Old Town. You can sit on a bench thats known to be "the longest in the world" with its length of more than 120 meters and that dates back to 1767. The trees of the promenades are used to decide when Spring begins in Geneva: its in fact the first flower to bloom on one of those trees that officially announces Spring! 🌳🌼☀️🌿

Very nice view! Dont forget to hang out and take pictures at the worlds longest wooden bench at 120 meters. This area is quite elevated so be prepared to walk up going here.
