Kids activities in Saint-Sulpice

Want a day by the lake without spending a dime? The Plage de Dorigny, in Saint-Sulpice, unfolds its large lawn and sand at the foot of the UNIL campus. Swimming in Lake Geneva, shaded spots, and a playground: here’s a family-friendly free spot just a stone's throw from Lausanne.

Are you looking for a quiet spot by Lake Geneva to splash around and have a picnic with your family? In Saint-Sulpice, the Pélican beach features a small gravel beach, a large shaded lawn, and a refreshment stand, all with free access. A simple and relaxing stop, just a stone's throw from Lausanne.

A skatepark, a basketball court, a synthetic football pitch, an athletics track and a table tennis table, all free and with no booking? In the centre of Savigny, the outdoor sports facilities are openly accessible, right beside the Forum playground.

A walk where you scan QR codes to watch video capsules about the history of the village? Savigny has laid out a documented trail for its 200th anniversary, with 8 relay points. Be warned, it is a big 16.7 km loop: with children, it is better discovered section by section.

Fancy a short walk that ends in a real discovery? North of Savigny, the Étang du Gresaley hides on the edge of the bois du Grand-Jorat. An observation deck lets you watch the water and the reeds, and a picnic table awaits the snack. Free, a few minutes from the car park.

North of Savigny, towards Mollie-Margot and the Jorat forest, the Collège du Jorat playground was given a crow's nest with a slide in 2024. With its swing and its spring-mounted duck, it is the stop for families in the upper part of the commune. Free.

Do you live or pass through the Claie-aux-Moines area? The la Guéta and Eden Roc playground, with its playhouse and its climbing wall, is the neighbourhood stop to know west of Savigny. Free, openly accessible, and served by a school bus stop.

The newest playground in Savigny? It is the one on the chemin de la Verne, entirely demolished and then rebuilt. A big boat, a large swing, a balance grove, a drinking fountain and black locust furniture, all behind a new fence. Free.

Looking for a quiet playground for young children in Savigny? Behind the Ancien collège, away from the road, a play combination, a moving balance snake and a climbing wall keep the little ones busy. Free, and the village toy library is a step away.

A playground in the village centre, with a skatepark and a multisports court right next door? On the Place du Forum in Savigny, children climb the towers and the climbing tree while parents settle at the picnic table. Free and open all year round.
