Site Guide
Campsite Description
Camping de Vidy is located in verdant parkland, on the banks of Lake Geneva, near to the outskirts of the ancient city of Lausanne. Surrounded by sloping woodland, the flat and grassy pitches are generally open, and enhanced by beautiful flower displays and neatly trimmed shrubs. Resting on the shores of the lake, the campsite restaurant is popular with customers, and serves freshly prepared dishes with ingredients sourced locally, including fish caught from the lake. The restaurant is also the focal point in high season for entertainment, including jazz evenings, live country music shows and decade themed nights. Although there is no pool on the campsite, a footpath leads from the campsite down to an area of the lake where swimming is safe and permitted. There is a frequent bus service into Lausanne which runs from outside the campsite. Home to the Olympic Committee since 1914, Lausanne is a picturesque town which plays host to countless festivals during the summer months. The old town is dominated by an impressive Gothic cathedral, and the small alleyways are a delight to discover with their little cafes and boutiques.
