Geneva - Post Report Question and Answers

What kinds of gyms or other sports/workout facilities are available? Are they expensive?

Plenty. Gyms everywhere. I think most work on yearly contracts so be mindful and give a 90 day notice. Proper gym available for free at the mission. - Jun 2022


In Switzerland, and, yes. - Jul 2018


There are a number though I hear they are very expensive. I prefer to run outdoors in the paths through the vineyards or along the lake. There is a gym available at the U.S. Mission. - Mar 2014


Not so much. Expensive. - Mar 2014


Yes, there are several chains, as well as indoor and outdoor pools in every neighborhood. - Mar 2013


Yup. One at the US Mission for USG expats. But it's oddly expensive even here. - Feb 2012


Geneva offers many gyms and private country clubs. There are two chains in the area which offer many locations you can use with your membership; Harmony and Silhouttes. The average price for the gym is 1000CHF a year. For the country club, I believe it is around 1500-2000CHF. Tennis and squash clubs are also very popular here. - Jul 2009
