Ségny (French pronunciation: [seɲi]), also written Segny, is a commune in the Ain department in eastern France.
Ségny is situated in the east of the department, in a district of the Lake Geneva / River Rhône basin known as the Pays de Gex. It lies on the important RN 5 trunk road from Paris to Geneva and is just five minutes by road from Geneva Cointrin International Airport.
