Summer activities for children in Bourg-en-Lavaux

What if your children swam with Lake Geneva and the Lavaux vineyards as a backdrop? The outdoor pool in Chexbres features two basins, a large lawn, and a snack bar in a stunning natural setting. A paddling pool for the little ones, a very affordable rate after 6 PM: the perfect summer outing.

Imagine stepping off the train and arriving directly with your feet in the water, in the heart of the UNESCO vineyard of Lavaux. This is the promise of the beach of Rivaz, a small free beach with a playground, diving board, and a view of the Château de Glérolles. An exceptional setting for a family day out.

Want a day by the water, between Lausanne and the vineyards of Lavaux? The Plage de Curtinaux, in Lutry, combines a large shaded lawn and a pebble shore on Lake Geneva. A free swimming spot, perfect for families looking to relax in front of the mountains.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.
