Vufflens Castle

Highlight • Castle

The imposing fortress of Vufflens is the most striking example of a small group of late-Middle-Ages Romanesque castles, characterized primarily by the fact that they were built of brick. An impressive building made up of several elements, Vufflens stands on a small hill overlooking Lake Geneva near Morges. Alone has remained intact to this day the core of what was originally a very extensive work.

Aubonne Village and Castle

Highlight • Settlement

Aubonne is recognizable by the white tower of its castle built in the 13th century.
You reach the village by a climb well known to local cyclists, before emerging into the narrow streets lined with houses built between the 16th and 19th centuries.
Several cafes and bakeries allow you to eat before continuing your walk in the vineyards of the Côte.

Fields around Ballens

Highlight • Natural

Fields in the region are mostly agricultural, but they're always hiding some nice moments and views of horses, or just the colors in contrast with the lake and, if lucky, the Mt Blanc in the background.
