Activities for children in Saint-George

Above Saint-George, in the Jura vaudois, this family winter hub brings everything together under the snow: about twenty kilometers of cross-country skiing, including a lit trail, sledding slopes, snowshoeing circuits, and ski lifts with blue and red slopes for beginners.

At the Marchairuz pass, in the heart of the Parc Jura vaudois, one of the longest toboggan runs in the region awaits you: nearly a kilometer of descent. With a groomed area for the little ones at the bottom of the slope, it's a free and friendly winter outing for the whole family.

Looking for an exciting outing in the Vaud Jura? In Saint-George, an adventure park in the forest offers treetop courses for both kids and adults, combining gentle thrills, nature, and self-confidence.

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.

What if the children steered the boat? On the shore of Lake Joux, next to the campsite, Rocheray Water Sports rents paddleboards, kayaks and pedalos and offers supervised outings, from a simple accompanied hour to a paddling weekend with a night at the campsite.

Looking for a swim that really cools you down? At over 1,000 metres of altitude, Rocheray Beach unrolls its lawn on the shore of Lake Joux, with a table and a grill spot. The neighbouring watersports base rounds off the day.

Want a day of swimming in the great outdoors, without driving for hours? The Piscine d'Aubonne, located at the foot of the castle, features a large pool, a paddling pool, a slide, and play areas in a green setting ideal for families from La Côte.

Are you looking for a warm getaway, summer or winter, in the heart of the Vallée de Joux? The indoor pool at the Centre sportif de la Vallée de Joux, in Sentier, welcomes families all year round. With its shallow pool designed for the little ones and its large pool for swimmers, it's the perfect spot when the weather in the Jura gets unpredictable.

Want a great day outdoors without breaking the bank? The Parc Pré Vert du Signal de Bougy, in the heights of Bougy-Villars, features a playground, animals, and sports fields overlooking Lake Geneva. Admission is free: just lay down the blanket, and the kids have plenty to run around all day.

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.

Fancy a magical nature day as a family? In Vullierens, on the heights of La Côte, the Castle Gardens unfold 400 varieties of irises, giant sculptures and the « Royaume du Roi Lézard » (Kingdom of the Lizard King), a nature trail for children. All with a view of Lake Geneva and the Alps.
