A small idyll on the very edge of Lausanne: the Louis Bourget Park. It is named after a doctor, naturalist and ornithologist who, during his lifetime from 1856 to 1913, campaigned for this spot to be declared a nature reserve.
This artificial island serves, among other things, as a refuge for migratory birds who no longer find quiet banks to stop off during their travels. Other nesting birds also benefit. A perfect site for ornithologists!
