Description
La Banquise is the City of Geneva's winter installation on the Quai Gustave-Ador, a playful lakeside space open to everyone. Four wood-fired saunas seat eight people each and are booked in 60-minute slots for CHF 10 per person, with cold showers between rounds. It runs only in late winter — 28 January to 26 April in 2026 — and opens Wednesday to Sunday from 11am to 9pm. Sessions may be taken in swimwear or in Nordic nudity with a cloth, and bookings are neither changeable nor refundable.
