Generous lawns, shady trees and long sandy beaches: the Vidy recreational area spreads out in front of the city gates. Here you can stroll along the marina, watch the beach volleyball players, play a game of mini golf or sit down in a bar by the water and squint in the sun, before heading out on the four-kilometer “Path of Sports” at the headquarters of the Olympic Committee makes.
