Discovering the Lavaux terraces

A vast network of hiking trails criss-cross the impressive slopes of the Lavaux terraced vineyards located between Lausanne and Chillon Castle and above Vevey and Montreux.

A la découverte des terrasses de Lavaux

This terraced vineyard was made by winegrowing families who have been lovingly tending their grapes for centuries. The breathtaking beauty of Lavaux is a pleasure for the soul and has attracted a great number of artists who came to live in these small picturesque villages.

Lavaux is considered a site of universal value and is now listed as part of the UNESCO World Heritage Programme. The mosaic-like patterned plots attract many hikers in search of rest and tranquillity.

All along a didactic path stretching from Lausanne to Montreux, Lavaux winegrowers invite visitors to discover the exceptional and authentic beauty of their vineyard in any season of the year.
