Why choose Chéserex for a family outing?

Chéserex appeals to families looking for a quiet outing, away from the bustle. Its highlight is Bonmont Abbey: a Cistercian church founded in 1123, open to visit free of charge from April to October, which immerses young and old in nine centuries of history. A short and simple first taste of heritage, perfect for children.

The setting, at the foot of the Jura and two steps from Nyon, also lends itself to a walk in nature after the visit. And every September, the abbey comes alive with the concerts of Les Vibrations de Bonmont. All of which makes Chéserex a culture-and-nature stop appreciated by families on La Côte.
