Morges

Morges is small enough that everything is walkable from the station, which removes most of the logistical friction a coaching session usually involves. The lakeside promenade running towards Saint-Prex is flat, uninterrupted and unusually good for running and outdoor training, and the sports facilities sit close to the centre rather than on the edge of town.

Bookings here skew towards families and towards people who want a calmer setting than Lausanne offers. Weekday mornings are easier to fill than in the cities; summer weekends around the lakeside are busier than people expect, so book those further ahead.
