Geneva Hiking with Dogs - May 2022 - Bois de la Bâtie, GE
We’re back with another edition of hiking with dogs this month. Due to fawning season restrictions, I opted for Bois de la Bâtie which is a leash-free zone year-round. It’s a great walk with nice views of the junction of the Arve and Rhone rivers, beaches for the dogs to swim and a nice varied walk.
Plainpalais Easter egg hunt!
We’re back for the Plainpalais Easter egg hunt organised by the Maison de Quartier. The kids are a little older now and had lots of fun! We started from Villa Freunder in Plainpalais at 9am, and reconvened here at 10am for breakfast.

Upgraded Bois de la Bâtie, Revisited

Wandering Amongst Cats in Geneva
