Kids activities in Romont

Fancy a beach where you can spread out your towels without bumping into anyone? At Gumefens, the lawn unrolls nearly 2,000 m2 on the shore of Lake Gruyère, with the Île d'Ogoz and its medieval ruins as a backdrop. Entirely free, with a large car park right beside it, along the Route du Marais.

Escaping the crowded beaches? The one at Pont-la-Ville is smaller and more intimate, with clear water and welcoming banks on the shore of Lake Gruyère. A quiet corner with open access, two steps from the Golf de la Gruyère and the Rossens dam footbridge.

Do your children dream of an island with a real castle? In the middle of Lake Gruyère, the Île d'Ogoz keeps two towers from the 13th century and a small white chapel. You reach it by solar-powered boat from the Port du Bry, and on a few days each year, on foot.

Fancy a short walk that leaves a long memory? Between the Rossens dam and Pont-la-Ville, a 105-metre metal footbridge runs ten metres above Lake Gruyère. Free, spectacular, and walked as a loop in less than an hour with the children.

How do you make a lake? In 1948, an 83-metre concrete wall blocked the Sarine and flooded a whole valley: Lake Gruyère was born. The Rossens dam is discovered from its surroundings, with an easy 2.3-kilometre walk along the water.

Want a day of swimming just a stone's throw from the old town of Moudon? The Piscine de Moudon welcomes you by the Broye, with its outdoor pools, a paddling pool for the little ones, and a slide. A large green space where the whole family spends the summer in the sun.

Want a day of swimming with family in the heart of Broye? The Payerne Pool welcomes you outdoors with its large 50 m pool, a paddling pool for the little ones, slides, and vast shaded lawns. Perfect for alternating between swimming, sliding, and picnicking under the trees all summer long.

Want a day of swimming with family in the heart of Gruyère? The Sorens Swimming Pool, nestled in Camping La Forêt, welcomes you with a heated swimming pool in summer and a small paddling pool for the little ones, just a few minutes from Lake Gruyère.
