Not far from La Sarraz is this gorgeous waterfall. On a very hot day you can take a dip even! Hike or Bike you will like.

Built between 990 and 1030, the abbey is one of the oldest Romanesque buildings in Switzerland. The village is also beautiful, and it is worth taking the time to explore its small cobbled streets.
