Leysin Swimming Pool: a covered pool with a giant inflatable course
Are you looking for a sheltered water activity, open all year round? The covered pool in Leysin combines a semi-Olympic pool, a practical movable floor for children, and on certain days, a large inflatable WIBIT course for hours of splashing around.
An indoor pool open all year round
The Leysin pool, one of the sports centers in the village, is a semi-Olympic covered pool of 25 meters open all year round. Its great asset for families: a movable floor adjustable from 0.4 to 2 meters, which allows adapting the depth to the age and level of children. You can swim in all weather, and in summer, the site is complemented by a small outdoor pool and a large lawn for sunbathing and picnicking. A true mountain water outing, accessible and well thought out.
What your children will discover
Children enjoy a secure covered pool thanks to the movable floor, as well as a covered wading pool for the little ones. The highlight is the giant inflatable water course WIBIT, installed on certain days: you must know how to swim and be at least 1.10 m tall to venture there. In summer, a small outdoor pool and a lawn complete the offer for a full day by the water.
What to do there and the atmosphere on site
The atmosphere is family-friendly and relaxed. You swim, splash around, test the inflatable course on days when it is set up, and then spread out on the lawn in summer. The WIBIT is available on weekends and public holidays, as well as on Tuesdays and Thursdays during school holidays, from 1:30 PM to 5:30 PM. The prices are reasonable and even lower with the guest card. Hours may vary depending on the season and maintenance: checking the official site before coming is advisable.
