Neighbourhood

Leysin is a quiet but very international village on top of a Swiss alp, facing south for wonderful light. It's in the French speaking region and is known as a very sporty village with a variety of options: hiking, paragliding, mountain biking, mountain climbing, via ferrata, swimming pool, tennis, mini-golf and even a year round large ice skating rink and lots more! It's a mountain for all seasons, where 3 Olympic medalists live! More info: https://sportleysin.ch/ There are 3 international boarding schools in this small town, and most people speak enough English to get by. There are several good restaurants within a brisk walk, and a free bus shuttle that stops near the apartment 8 times a day. And for the gourmet travelers, Leysin has an annual gourmet festival "Village Alpin de Gout" and wonderful local products: https://www.alpesvaudoises.ch/en/G3749/leysin/terroir-and-local-produce-in-leysin Leysin is inhabited all year round, you will also find all the services you need: 2 supermarkets, 2 banks, bakeries, butcher, local cheese shop, a cinema, there's even a local brewery and so much more to discover! The studio is about a 5-8 minute walk from the train station, so it’s convenient for those traveling EU by train. You don’t really need a car. More info here: https://www.alpesvaudoises.ch/en/stories/leysin The famous Lac Leman (AKA Lake Geneva) is just at the foot of the mountain, about 20 mins by train. The lake beaches there are lovely! The one by Chateau de Chillion is my personal favorite :-) https://www.montreuxriviera.com/en/P81431/chillon-beach 30 minutes away is the Lavaux region, a terraced vineyard, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you can find magnificent wines. You are also ~30 minutes from Montreux (= Montreux Jazz Festival!) and ~1:30 from Geneva (international airport) by car. Lausanne is at 1:00, Interlaken is at 2:00, Lucerne is at 2:30, if you use a car. By train, Geneva is at ~2:00, Montreux at ~0:45, Lausanne is at 1:00, Interlaken is at 3:00, Lucerne is at 3:30. So much to discover!

Getting Around

Leysin is a true Swiss mountain village. The streets are very safe, and will definitely keep you in good shape! There is a free shuttle that stops near the chalet (2 min walk) that does a circuit around town. E-bikes and mountain bikes are very popular here, and there are a couple of sport gear rental shops in town. There is a local taxi service if needed.
