Flower-filled garden with trees, bordering the Arve River and the Casino. Situated in very pleasant surroundings, on a clear day you can see Mont Blanc.
The Jardin des Iris is a quiet spot right by the Arve river, with an impressive collection of colourful flowers. Spring is the best time to visit, when hundreds of varieties are in full bloom. You can take a peaceful walk along the riverbanks through the paths maintained by local teams. It’s a popular place for photographers and walkers who enjoy its simple beauty. A perfect, colourful break by the water.
