Our Location & Campus

Welcome to Leysin American School on the beautiful Magic Mountain!

First, you will notice the incredible view that greets you everywhere on campus. Our campus is in one of the prettiest spots in the Swiss Alps! Dorms and classrooms are spread throughout the romantic village of Leysin, and students enjoy a sense of security afforded by our safe location high in the mountains. 

The best part about LAS is that it feels like home, and over 60 years of LAS alumni will tell you that they found a home and family on our Magic Mountain.

Our Mountain Home

Welcome to Leysin, our picturesque mountain home in the heart of the Swiss Alps. While the village is famous for its skiing, Leysin offers something special in every season. In winter, the slopes are just steps away, but we also have a vast network of trails inviting hikers and bikers to explore breathtaking alpine scenery. From paragliding and horseback riding to tobogganing, climbing, and skateboarding, Leysin is a year-round destination for adventure, discovery, and connection with nature.
