Follow in the footsteps of the Romans among picturesque vineyards

Avenches Youth Hostel offers comfortable accommodation with a bright restaurant and modern rooms in a historic setting. There is also a wonderful garden with sunny spots and secluded corners for visitors to enjoy.

Stretching as far as the eye can see are vineyards dotted with remnants of a rich history that dates back to Roman times. The charming old town extends to the doorstep of the youth hostel, which also offers easy access to the scenic Three Lakes Region. We are certain that a visit to Avenches will exceed your expectations. But there’s only one way to find out. Come and visit us and see for yourself!
