Signal de Bernex, Hill in the canton of Geneva, Switzerland

Signal de Bernex is a hill at Bernex in the canton of Geneva, rising to 510 m, the canton's second-highest point after Les Arales at Monniaz. Its summit was raised during the enlargement of the drinking-water reservoirs between 2003 and 2006. Orientation tables on top identify the Geneva plain and its vineyards, and carry quotations from Robert Hainard.

The summit was raised during the enlargement of the drinking-water reservoirs between 2003 and 2006, which brought its high point to 510 m. That makes it the second-highest point in the canton of Geneva, after the spot called Les Arales at Monniaz. Orientation tables on the hill now carry quotations from the naturalist Robert Hainard.

The Signal de Bernex is known among locals as a spot for weekend walks and dog outings. Along the trail, protected orchids grow between the grass, visible in spring to anyone walking up.

The path to the top follows the T1 trail, which is clearly marked and fitted with handrails on the steps, making it accessible for most visitors. There are no shops or food stalls on the hill, so bringing water and a snack is a good idea.

On clear days, Mont Blanc is visible from the summit, more than 70 kilometers away. That is a surprisingly far view for a hill that sits at just 510 meters.
