Tour de Gourze
A small medieval watchtower on a vineyard ridge with sweeping panoramas of Lake Geneva, the Lavaux terraces (UNESCO) and the Alps. Photograph dramatic vistas at sunrise/sunset, fog-filled mornings and autumn vine colors. Accessible via a short steep walk from Riex; parking in the village. Tower may have narrow stone steps and limited opening hours—check local signage and dress for wind. Weekdays and shoulder seasons offer fewer visitors and clearer light.
