Christmas Village
For its 17th edition and for the third consecutive year, Montreux Noël presents an exceptional additional site.
The organisers’ dream of a Mountain Christmas Village has become a reality in the town of Caux above Montreux.
Families and children can enjoy the reindeer park, various animals, a giant nativity scene, the village of the sprites and Santa’s post office!
Games for children and play areas have been set up on an esplanade overlooking a breathtaking panorama of Lake Geneva and the Alps.
Information
Open every day from 24 November to 24 December 2011 from 10:45 am 19:15, except Mondays and Tuesdays
Santa Claus’s sprites will create a party atmosphere for the children and offer them lots of lively and educational games and entertainment. Snick the clown will also be there to amuse the children.
Come discover the magic forest and take a mysterious and fascinating walk populated with mythological characters.
Competition of the most beautiful Christmas trees
In cooperation with the Swiss Association of Florists the 3rd year apprentices from all over Switzerland present their creations to the theme "Christmas Tree".
Our visitors will be the jury and evaluate the most beautiful Christmas trees.
The first three winners will receive coupons, offered by the organisation Montreux-Noël, to attend professional training courses.
Transportation
Montreux - Glion - Rochers-de-Naye train
Located above Montreux in the mountain town of Caux, the Christmas Village is very close to the railway "Caux" station.
We therefore recommend that visitors come by train to the Montreux railway station and then change to Montreux - Glion - Rochers-de-Naye train to reach Caux.
