Hike from Allaman to Signal de Bougy
From Allaman station, climb to the Signal de Bougy through the charming villages of Féchy and Bougy Villars.
The path runs along the motorway for a short distance at the beginning and quickly becomes a path through the vineyards. From Féchy, the view of the lake and the mountains opens up and offers a breathtaking panorama.
The hike is not suitable for pushchairs, but can be done by mountain bike.
The last stretch from Bougy-Villars is relatively steep and is therefore recommended for children who walk well, even uphill.

Allaman
From the Middle Ages to the end of the Ancien Régime, Allaman was the centre of a seigniory with a very complicated and sometimes turbulent history. The castle and the old church with its armorial pulpit can still be seen in the locality.
The visitor who is more curious about rural and lakeside sites must cross the village of Allaman and discover a rustic church alongside sturdy houses where winegrowers, nurserymen, ceramists, traders and fishermen live. In the direction of Féchy, the view dominates the hillside and is lost in the horizon of Lake Geneva. A discerning eye invites you to continue to the lake through kiwi plantations or along the banks of the gambolling Aubonne. The charm is there: a small natural harbour, set in a green setting, a boon for yachtsmen and strollers who will watch, along the way, for a few herons on their stilts or the oblique flight of wild ducks. A place full of sweet dreams, which the painter Charles Chinet celebrated in many of his paintings and which served as the setting for one of the most beautiful films by the filmmaker Michel Soutter.
The good food being not forgotten, tourists and walkers know that they will find in Allaman, in three signs, greedy relays, prompt to dispense them all the pleasures of the table.
