The Quai des Savoyards in Lausanne is a beautiful promenade along Lake Geneva. It is a picturesque place where you can walk, relax and enjoy the view of the lake and the Alps. The promenade connects the old port area with the Tour Haldimand, a historic tower that once stood on an island, similar to the Château d'Ouchy from the 12th century. Along the Quai des Savoyards you will also find several large parks, including the Parc du Denantou, with lush lawns and centuries-old trees.

Lavaux Vineyard Terraces (UNESCO World Heritage Site)

Highlight • Historical Site

The Via Francigena also passes here, more precisely the bs2 stage from Lausanne to Villeneuve: From Lausanne and the port of Ouchy, you stay close to the lake until Lutry. We then gain altitude to cross the magnificent Lavaux vineyard, listed as a UNESCO heritage site. The view is breathtaking over the lake to the Alps! We then go back down through the town of Vevey to reach the lakeside again and then the town of Montreux.

Lavaux Vineyards

Highlight • Structure

The road along the lake gives beautiful views! There can also be (sadly) quite a lot of car traffic making it less enjoyable. I recommend finding a time with less traffic (early in the morning or later in the evening) to enjoy it more!

Route du Vignoble Along Lake Geneva

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful section, but you’re sharing the enjoyment with motorists, so be careful. Also there are many racing cyclists about so be prepared to be overtaken by anyone.

On the way to the Rhone Valley we did this panoramic bike tour around Lake Geneva today. It got off to a good start in Chexbres, where cycling is free on Sundays. Always above Lake Geneva with a magnificent view, the cycle path is one of the most beautiful we have done so far. Shortly before Lausanne we reached the …
