Promenade Derrière-Bourg

It may not be big, but it certainly requires plenty of work! A true showcase of the skills of Lausanne's gardeners, the Promenade Derrière-Bourg is also a very popular spot - on fine days it's impossible to find a free seat at lunchtimes.

A remarkable walk on two levels, nestled between two main roads. At the heart of a densely built-up area and running alongside the busy Place Saint-François, the Promenade Derrière-Bourg is a little oasis of peace and quiet.
