Activities for children in Chéserex

Want to get the whole family moving in the forest without spending a franc? Above Trélex, on the road to Saint-Cergue, the Parcours Vita unwinds 2.5 km of trail and around fifteen exercise stations, with views over the lake and the Alps. Free, open all year round, maintained since 1971.

A new way to run around outdoors as a family in Saint-Cergue? Disc golf! On a free, open-access 9-basket course, you throw the frisbee from target to target, between forest and meadow at the foot of the Jura. Discs are available to rent on site: perfect for trying it together.

Do your children want to ride and jump on a mountain bike? In Saint-Cergue, the bike park opens up 4,000 m² of pump track and loops with progressive difficulty, from beginner green to more technical red. Free open access, helmet on: the ideal place to progress on a bike.

Fancy lacing up your skates in the open air this winter? In Saint-Cergue, at the foot of the slopes, an open-air village ice rink welcomes you free of charge, skates included. Between free skating, ice hockey and a warm snack, it's the simplest ice outing in the Vaud Jura.

Fancy an immersive, weatherproof adventure near Nyon? At Signy-Centre, Second World plunges young and old into virtual reality: team games, a VR escape game and guaranteed thrills from age 7. The perfect rainy-day outing.

Want to take the children out on the lake in Nyon? At Le Ponton, on the shore of Lake Geneva, pedalo rental gets you on the water within minutes: you pedal gently, the little ones take the helm and enjoy the view of the shore and the Château de Nyon. A simple, refreshing summer outing — no booking required.

Want a peaceful swim by Lake Geneva without spending a dime? Crans Beach, in Crans-près-Céligny, is a small public beach located next to the municipal port: lawn, playground, barbecues, and a view of the Alps. The perfect spot for a family day on the Côte.

In Saint-Cergue, PPP Rando introduces families to the world of sled dogs. On the agenda: meeting a pack of huskies and cani-hiking, a walk pulled by the dogs, possible on snow as well as off snow. From age 5, by reservation.
