A warm pool in the heart of La Tour-de-Peilz
When the sky sulks over Lake Geneva, the Covered Pool of the Mousquetaires becomes the ideal retreat for families on the Riviera. Located in the heart of La Tour-de-Peilz, at Place des Anciens-Fossés, it features a pool measuring 11 by 25 meters, with water maintained at a pleasant temperature of 27°. Here, there's no capricious weather: you put on your swimsuit and dive in, whether it's autumn, winter, or a rainy spring day. It's a simple, friendly, and affordable place designed for both young and old to enjoy the pleasure of water all year round.
What your children will discover
Your children will rediscover the joy of splashing in warm water, without shivering and without worrying about the weather outside. The covered pool offers space for beginners to practice their strokes, play, or train seriously for the older ones. The pool also offers a swimming school divided into several phases, which supports children from the age of 4 up to adolescence: a great opportunity to learn to swim confidently, supervised by instructors. For local families, this is often where the first real aquatic memories are made.
What to do there and the atmosphere on site
The atmosphere is that of a neighborhood pool: warm, unpretentious, frequented by regulars from La Tour-de-Peilz and neighboring towns. People come for an hour of swimming at the end of the day, for a swimming lesson on Wednesdays, or for a relaxing family moment on Saturday afternoons. The heated pool invites both the playful antics of the youngest and the leisurely laps of the parents. As the public opening hours are specific, one can enjoy a calm, human-sized place, far from the hustle and bustle of large aquatic complexes.
