The Astropléiades trail

Blonay

AstroPléiades is an open-air educational trail located at an altitude of 1,348 m, on the heights of Les Pléiades. Sponsored by astronaut Claude Nicollier, it features 17 fun stations combining science, art and poetry. The route, accessible by the Star Train from Vevey or Blonay, explores four major themes: the Earth, the Solar System, the stars and our place in the universe. Open from May to October, AstroPléiades also offers guided tours to deepen the experience. Every summer, a magical event is added to the program: the Night of the Shooting Stars, in August, where sky observations and immersive animations delight young and old alike. A celestial adventure for the whole family, combining nature, contemplation and discovery.
