À propos
Climb aboard the charming little red train on the Nyon-Saint-Cergue-Morez line and embark on a picturesque journey between Switzerland and France! Linking Nyon, on the shores of Lake Geneva, to the border hamlet of La Cure, just 3km from the centre of Les Rousses, this tourist train offers an exceptional panorama of the Haut-Jura. At a glance, you'll be amazed by the sparkling waters of Lake Geneva, the majestic Alps and the mythical Mont-Blanc.

A little history
Inaugurated in 1921, the Nyon-Saint-Cergue-Morez metric railway line linked Nyon and Morez. Until 1958, it provided an easy way to cross the border. Today, the line stops at La Cure, on the Swiss side of the border - a charming vestige of a unique cross-border railway past.

A panoramic getaway all year round
The train runs every day, summer and winter, departing every hour. On board, enjoy a contemplative journey to Nyon and explore its old town, museums and narrow streets full of character.
A day pass allows you to hop on and off at your leisure at the stops in La Givrine, Saint-Cergue or Arzier to explore the famous Toblerones trail.
In Nyon, continue the adventure: take the boat for a cruise on Lake Geneva to Yvoire, a medieval village of unparalleled charm. The "train + boat La Cure-Nyon-Yvoire" package promises an unforgettable day out, for young and old alike!

Good to know
The Les Rousses Tourist Offices offer :
Combined train + boat packages La Cure-Nyon-Yvoire (return) - please note that crossings are more limited in winter.

Other tickets are available directly from the ticket machine at La Cure station.
During the tourist season, you can easily reach La Cure by Skibus (depending on the season).

Don't forget to take an identity document with you when you go through customs, and don't forget that the currency in Switzerland is the Swiss franc, so traffic rules are slightly different.
