Leysin

Leysin

Leysin is located in the district of Aigle in Vaud at 1253 m above sea level on a southern terrace. The place is particularly beautifully situated because it offers direct views of the valley through which the Grande Eau River flows east of the Rhone Valley. Because of the high proportion of sunshine, there is a particularly mild climate here. Leysin can be reached from Aigle by rack railroad in about 35 minutes. 250 km of hiking trails, some of which are also used for bike tours, are easy for families to walk. In addition, the rugged limestone cliffs offer a field of activity for climbers. In winter, 17 lifts and a snow park await visitors. In summer, Leysin offers a children's entertainment program.

“I had a great time taking part in this outdoor activity and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. I felt safe thanks to the professional coaches who gave clear instructions and patiently taught me how to use the equipment. The gear was in excellent condition, and the whole activity was fun, safe, and well organized. I would definitely recommend it.”

“I loved the canyon swing. It felt like a once‑in‑a‑lifetime experience. The team were friendly and helpful, kept me calm when I started to panic, and gave me a little push to finally get off. Thank you.”
