Outdoor pool in Chexbres: swim with a view of Lavaux

An Outdoor Pool with a View of Lake Geneva

Are you looking for a pool where the view is worth the trip? In Chexbres, on the heights of Lavaux, the outdoor pool offers a splendid panorama of Lake Geneva and the vineyard. In a natural and green setting, there are two pools, a large lawn for sunbathing, and a snack bar for tasty breaks. Managed by the Chexbres Pool Association with the support of the municipality, it exudes the relaxed atmosphere of village pools. A beautiful setting for a summer day with family, away from the crowds.

What Your Children Will Discover

The pool has two basins: one for experienced swimmers and a wading pool for the little ones. Children of various ages find their space, from their first splashes to the lengths of the older ones. Around the pools, a large lawn allows for playing, picnicking, and resting in the shade or sun. A playground completes the ensemble, and the view of the lake accompanies the entire day.

What to Do There and the Atmosphere On-Site

You settle on the lawn, alternating between swimming, playing, and taking breaks. The snack bar and kiosk allow for on-site dining, and you can rent lockers, umbrellas, and ping-pong equipment. Showers and changing cabins add to the comfort. The atmosphere is family-friendly and quiet, typical of an outdoor pool in the countryside. A little tip: after 6 PM, the price drops to CHF 3.- for everyone, ideal for a late-day swim.
