or Leysin accommodation? This beautiful alpine resort village was once renowned for being a center for treating respiratory diseases due to its high altitude and sunny and mild climate. Today this particular resort, situated at the eastern end of Lake Geneva with spectacular views of the Rhone Valley is a popular tourist destination for families as it is extremely child-friendly. There is a snow kindergarten and activities for children include treasure hunting, visits to local farms and diaries and a well maintained sledding run especially for kids as it’s entirely bowl-shaped with no risk of out-of-control sledding. Moreover, its’ free.
There are plenty of things to do in Leysin and it seems the whole village exudes a very laid-back and unpretentious atmosphere. Take the Berneuse Cable Car for magnificent views both while you ascend and when reaching the top. On a clear day, you can see as far as the town of Lausanne. In summer, there is the option of taking one of the hiking trails – there is 250 km worth of trails. In addition, go tobogganing, mountain biking, mountaineering or visit the Enzian Park with hundreds of medicinal plants left from when it was a health resort. During winter there are skating, skiing, snowboarding, snowshoe trekking, and snow tubing.
If you are looking for something more relaxed, you can visit the Aigle Castle; it dates back to the 12th century and is home to the Vaud Vine and Whine Museum. Alternatively, walk around in the village, buying souvenirs and sampling local chocolate. Have a meal 2000 meters above sea level in a revolving restaurant atop the Berneuse. Alternatively, enjoy happy hour(s) at the Base Camp Bar between 4pm – 7pm.
