Descripción
Even after the fall of the Roman Empire, the Via Francigena remained one of the most important long-distance roads. Traders, soldiers and crowned heads used the route of approximately 1,700 kilometres, which runs from Canterbury to Rome.
The stage described here starts on the plateau of Cossonay, above the Venoge river. Even in the High Middle Ages, the town was owned by an important noble family and was even granted a city charter in 1264. The urban landscape is characterised by the 19th century town hall with its classical façade, the late Gothic Café des Bains and other well-preserved town houses and patrician houses from the 17th to 19th centuries.
From the plateau, the trail descends more than 100 metres in altitude to Cossonay Penthalaz. You continue hiking through the hilly landscape, forest and pasture sections. Finally, you walk along the banks of the Venoge to the scattered village of Vufflens-la-Ville. After that, around two and a half hours further along the road, comes Bussigny.
After crossing under the motorway, there is an idyllic one-hour section that follows the Venoge river. The trail meanders along the river, which is partly still and partly fast-flowing, towards Lake Geneva. The trail branches off to the left at the estuary. You reach St. Sulpice along the shore of Lake Geneva, and one and a half hours sees the end of this stage at Lausanne Ouchy. This final part represents an extreme contrast to the first five hours of hiking: it goes from dreamy, secluded, natural and quiet to fast-paced, hectic, modern and noisy.
