View listingWhy choose Lausanne for a family sports & leisure outing?
Because the city aligns playgrounds between Ouchy, Vidy, and Bellerive: you can go from pedal boat to mini-golf and then to the P'tit train without taking the car. It's one of the best lake + activity combos in French-speaking Switzerland.
And the season never stops: indoor skatepark in Sévelin, trampolines and covered pool with diving boards at Mon-Repos for winter. Lausanne's public transport services the shores well — metro m2 to Ouchy, bus to Vidy — convenient with children and equipment.
