Playgrounds for children in Châtel-Saint-Denis

Looking for a warm cinema outing in the Veveyse? The Sirius, in Châtel-Saint-Denis, is the only independent, volunteer-run cinema in the canton of Fribourg. With its Sunday family screenings and its “ciné-fondue” formula, it is a lovely local outing, in any weather.

Do your children dream of boarding a real steam train? At the Blonay-Chamby railway museum, above the Riviera, they travel in vintage carriages, cross a viaduct and a tunnel, and discover a collection of historic locomotives. A journey back in time for the whole family.

Want a trip that combines mountain trains, stars, and flower-filled meadows? At Les Pléiades, above Blonay, your children take the train from Vevey, walk along a path dedicated to the solar system, and discover a 360-degree panorama of Lake Geneva and the Alps.

Want a day full of thrills at the foot of the Moléson? Mountain coaster racing between the fir trees, all-terrain go-karting, and mini-golf: your kids will love racing down the mountain, again and again. A family outing to enjoy as soon as the nice weather arrives.

Do you know the man with the bowler hat and the cane? At Chaplin's World, your children step into the magical universe of Charlie Chaplin, on the heights above Vevey. A manor, a film studio and a large park: a funny and tender journey to enjoy as a family. Are you ready for the big show?

A desire for swimming all year round on the Riviera? In Clarens, the Maladaire pool houses one of the few covered Olympic-sized swimming pools in the canton of Vaud, a 48-meter slide, and an outdoor wading pool in the summer. Enough to delight swimmers of all ages.

What if you offered your children a trip to over 2000 meters in altitude, starting from Montreux? The cogwheel train climbs in 48 minutes to a vast panorama over Lake Geneva and the Alps. A breathtaking family outing.

Feeling like playing a round of minigolf in Montreux, with your feet almost in the lake? With its 18 holes set between the palm trees and the palaces of the Riviera, this outdoor course promises a fun moment with family, with Lake Geneva as the backdrop. A simple outing, accessible from age 4, perfect after a stroll along the quays.
