Remember that the Lavaux vineyard is a protected and fragile site, here are some recommendations to preserve it.
Very near Lausanne is concealed a path with a breathtaking view. I take the train to St-Saphorin and walk back to Lausanne through the vineyards, with a view over the lake and the mountains. I have rarely seen paths with such a beautiful landscape.
To my mind, it’s the most beautiful panorama! I can’t count the number of times I’ve walked through the vineyards in that breathtaking setting! The best way to unplug and reconnect with nature.

All along the educational trail from Lausanne to Montreux, Lavaux vine-growers invite visitors to explore the exceptional and authentic beauty of their vineyards, whatever the season. Wine tourism breaks offer wine tastings and the chance to sample typical products in the vineyard wine cellars, the ideal complement to walks through the vines.
