    This is my favorite park in Lausanne. There is a big forested area with paved or gravel trails, a big pond, a restaurant with restrooms, a truly beautiful new wooden playground, a wonderful sandy water play area that young children love, a little miniature zoo with goats, pigs, chickens and a few other animals, and a big tower that you can walk up to get a great view of Lausanne. This park is very family friendly and a good place to spend a warm summer day. The park is accessible view car and there is a parking lot. The 16 and 22 bus also go into, or right next too, the park. I would recommend spending a summer day here with the family...bring a picnic!

    Went to Lausanne on business, discovered this beautiful oasis with the small lake/pond and extraordinary playground. Kids played there for two hours. Restaurant at hand. Recommend as a good place to go with 5-year-olds.

    Amazing! Is a hidden gem that offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. The towering trees, tranquil lake, and picturesque hiking trails make it a nature lover's paradise. The Autumn colors it's incredible!!

    Good place for a walk if the weather is good. I had the feeling that the tower was wobbly at the top, even got a little dizzy. Note that the tower has a separate staircase for ascending and descending.

    Very beautiful park, so peaceful and calm , I totally recommend it if you want to just to take a break from your busy day or week ! I highly recommend going up the Sauvabelin Tower as well, it's not as hard to climb up as it looks , believe me it worths it ;)

  • 5/5 Damien G. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the best. It is more a forest than a parc so ideal for tree lovers

  • 5/5 Margot 2 years ago on Google
    One of the most beautiful parks of Lausanne. The view on the city and the lake from the tower is jawdropping.

  • 5/5 MONICA M. 7 months ago on Google
    Perfect place for a relaxing and chill day with kids, friends, and grandparents. There's a coffee shop when you're hungry, a playground and farm animals for the little ones, and a forest trail to unwind and exercise. There's ample parking, accessible for strollers, and lots of shaded areas.

  • 5/5 Phethiwe N. 5 months ago on Google
    The top of the tower provides glorious views of the lake, alps and the city.
