“It was a stunning castle and we easily spent a couple hours there.”
Cully
Cully is located directly on the northern shores of Lake Geneva, only about eight km from Lausanne. The town is located in the famous wine-growing region of Lavaux. The Lavaux Express is a tourist train that runs through the steep vineyards in summer. Cully has a landing stage for the Lake Geneva shipping company CGN SA. The town lies on the routes between Lausanne and Vevey. In Cully, the historic center is worth seeing. It dates from the 16th to 19th centuries and features proud patrician houses in cozy narrow streets. The Fountain of Justice features a statue and a pretty octagonal fountain basin.A hiking trail leads to the Mont de Gourze, a panoramic mountain at 925 meters above sea level. The view goes far and shows the Alps in addition to the basin of Lake Geneva.

“Really great visit, well organized and interesting.”
“Excellent: interesting details about the city, told in an easy-to-understand way, just the right length (90 minutes), not too fast and not too slow. Recommended!”
“Quality day with valentine and airtime paragliding. Couldn’t have made my 30th any more special.”
“Absolutely amazing! I had a stunning glide and as a bonus got a massage!!!”
“5 stars for the mountain views, lucky with the weather and to be seated on the revolving part of the restaurant. Most of the cable staff were confused with this app/ticket, only one out of six knew to scan the QR code with a different app, the rest let us through the barrier with a couple of them saying we should have had a paper or different sort of ticket. No extra cost etc. but be warned. Waitress in the restaurant didn't recognise the ticket either so had to check with a manager but all good in the end. Meat and cheese board for 2 people as expected - four different ones of each, a couple of pieces of cheese, four slices of each meat.”
