General presentation
Morges, Rolle and La Côte
Leman's gentle river between castles, ports, vineyards, wine villages and views of the Alps.

See all
For a stay of 1 to 3 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be expected: short stay and very frequented shore in the beautiful days. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Place
Morges
Morges reads on the lakeside and its transitional streets: neat architecture, public spaces, regular traffic. The views towards the water combine with more inner routes that reveal daily life. It's a city where the promenade gains interest when you leave the main loop.
Place
Rolle
Rolle aligns its centre, castle and docks opposite the Geneva, with the Alps in the background when the air is released. The city is ready for a simple stop between arcades, small streets and promenade by the water, in the heart of the Vaudian Coast.
Coast
The coast
The Coast is first perceived by the dynamics of the water, then by the paths that border it. The coastline imposes moments of opening and then of visual compression, very useful for reading the local geography. A long walk becomes richer when you move gradually towards the high points.
Place
Aubonne
Aubonne remains attached to a balance between village and lake horizon, with alleys that reveal successively places, facades and views of water. Short detours are enough to understand the structure. The site rewards observation of facade details and land transitions.
