Allée cavalière, bordée d'arbres centenaires, au Château de Vullierens.

Horse trail

A majestic avenue lined with century-old trees and sculptures, which in spring is adorned with a magical blue carpet of 160,000 bluebells… At its end lies a Petit Bois Enchanté, a haven of mystery and poetry.

The historic bridle path was created by Princess Amélie Golowkin, inspired by a design by the famous landscape architect André Le Nôtre.
At the time, it connected the castles of Vullierens and Saint-Saphorin-sur-Morges, allowing the lords of the manor to visit each other without having to take the road.

Today, this 400-meter walk, shaded by majestic century-old trees—several of which are classified as remarkable trees by the Canton of Vaud—leads to a hidden pond, bathed in silence and poetry, where the singing of birds invites you to daydream.

Every spring, between late April and early May, the path is transformed into a blue carpet of bluebells: a rare and unique sight in Switzerland that is not to be missed.
