B. How to get there

By public transit:

From the train station (Cornavin), take Tram number 15 (direction: "Palettes") and get out at "Industrielle" (about 7 stops). The whole ride takes about 15 minutes.

By car:

  1. Take the highway to Geneva
    From the only real highway surrounding Geneva (A1/E21), take the ramp Genève-Centre/La Praille/Carouge
  2. Once you are on the Expressway to Genève-Centre/La Praille/Carouge, take the third exit (wake up after 3 tunnels) and exit "Acacias" / Genève-Centre,
  3. Park your car in Parking "Etoile" right after the exit and walk 5 minutes according to the maps page or google map (forget about finding "street parking".
by TAXI: Tell them to take you to "Rond Point des Noirettes". You can trust them, but they are very expensive.
