There are places where daily life is more pleasant than others ; and our region may be counted among them. In fact, the region offers one of the highest qualities of life. Those who have already selected it can confirm just how it lives up to its reputation. Whether one is in the human-sized cities of Geneva, Lausanne, Vevey, Montreux or in the countryside, the quality of life is identical.
One of the specialities of our region is that it offers simultaneously lakeside beauty, countryside, alpine meadows, vineyards and urban living all within a distance of 50 miles.
The Lake of Geneva (the largest fresh water lake in central Europe 89 billion m3) offers numerous opportunities for aquatic sports, magnificent promenades along its banks and excursions in steamers. In summer, solar-powered boats allow trips from port to port. The countryside is luxuriously green and has retained its attraction. Its vineyard terraces benefit from sunshine that is propitious for the production of high-quality wine (red, rose or white).
The human-sized cities offer both the advantages of urban centres and those of the countryside.
