Stroll the shores of Lake Geneva from Ouchy to Morges, enjoying lakeside paths, viewpoints, and charming Swiss scenery.
Begin your walk at Lausanne, Ouchy-Olympique, right by the picturesque lakeside. Admire the historic Ouchy: Château before heading west along Lake Geneva’s shoreline. Pass through Vidy with its lovely viewpoints and the fascinating Port de Lousonna (Le passé pas à pas) archaeological site.
