Leysin, one of the foremost alpine resorts in French-speaking Switzerland, provides a friendly, welcoming home for the LAS community.

Located on a south facing plateau of the Alps, the region is renowned internationally for its invigorating and sunny climate. Leysin is only 90 minutes by car from Geneva and is connected to Europe's rail system.

 

The region is rich in arts and heritage providing students with opportunities to attend museums, theater, art galleries and international exhibitions and conferences.

The village is well-known as an alpine resort with banks, restaurants, hotels, shops, and an English language cinema. With a population of only 3,000 residences it is small enough for our students to be both safe and part of a real community.

There are also world class recreation facilities including a full sized year-round ice skating rink, 25 meter semi-olympic sized indoor swimming pool, fitness center, gymnasium, indoor and outdoor tennis courts and indoor climbing wall which our students are free to use. As a major winter resort there are over 60 km of downhill and 10 km cross country skiing slopes and trails allowing Leysin to host national and international skiing and snowboarding events.
