Winter activities for children in Trélex

In the forests of Genolier and Givrins, the Sentier du Bas des Côtes was conceived with local schoolchildren. Along the path, panels tell the story of the forest and its ecosystems. A nature walk, educational and free, in the heart of the Parc Jura vaudois.

A playful dive into the history of tractors and agricultural tools, in the heart of an old mill. Perfect for sparking the curiosity of children and parents.

Fancy a quiet, free journey into the Middle Ages? In Chéserex, at the foot of the Jura, Bonmont Abbey opens its Cistercian church—founded in 1123—to families. A short, peaceful visit to awaken children to history, just a few minutes from Nyon.

Between Genolier and Duillier, the Bois de Chênes is a vast plain forest where young and old explore oak groves, meadows, and ponds. An educational loop, large picnic areas, and the tranquility of the Nyon district: a simple and free nature outing, just a stone's throw from the train.

A simple and joyful outing in Nyon: bowling alleys, a friendly atmosphere, and a tasty break. Perfect for a rainy afternoon or a family evening.

On a mountain pasture over 1000 meters above Saint-Cergue, the Espace Loisirs Basse-Ruche brings the mountain to life for families all year round. All-terrain scooters, mini-adventure park, zip lines, and swingolf in the summer; ski lifts and sledding in the winter: there is something for all ages.

A new way to run around outdoors as a family in Saint-Cergue? Disc golf! On a free, open-access 9-basket course, you throw the frisbee from target to target, between forest and meadow at the foot of the Jura. Discs are available to rent on site: perfect for trying it together.

Fancy lacing up your skates in the open air this winter? In Saint-Cergue, at the foot of the slopes, an open-air village ice rink welcomes you free of charge, skates included. Between free skating, ice hockey and a warm snack, it's the simplest ice outing in the Vaud Jura.
