Why choose Le Bouveret for a family outing?
The first sure value of Le Bouveret is Aquaparc. This indoor water park features slides, waves, and family areas in heated water: a large pool of good cheer suitable for all ages. Its big advantage is that it can be visited regardless of the weather, making it an ideal outing on rainy days as well as in the middle of summer. The youngest enjoy the gentle areas while the older ones tackle the slides.
Right next door, by Lake Geneva, the Swiss Vapeur Parc offers a gentle experience. You can travel aboard miniature trains that wind through a carefully crafted setting, with real steam locomotives. The slow pace and reduced scale are very appealing to children from a young age: it's a poetic outing, perfect as a complement to a more active morning.
Between the two parks, the lakeside invites you to take a stroll. The harbor, the shores, and the view of the Chablais mountains provide a pleasant setting for walking, picnicking, or simply enjoying the lakeside atmosphere before or after the activities.
With Aquaparc and the Swiss Vapeur Parc combined by Lake Geneva, Le Bouveret allows you to combine thrills and discovery in a single day. A complete family destination, at the end of the Haut-Lac.
