Hotels in Aigle, Switzerland
Aigle is a town in Switzerland's Vaud canton, cradled in the Rhône valley below the Alps, and is famous for its medieval Château d'Aigle and the Lavaux vineyard terraces, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The climate is mild, with warm summers averaging 75°F (24°C) that are ideal for hiking the vineyard paths and tasting local Chasselas wine, while cold winters around 32°F (0°C) push you to nearby ski resorts like Leysin for downhill skiing. In spring, the vines leaf out and the annual Fête des Vendanges in autumn celebrates the grape harvest, giving you a reason to visit the castle's Swiss Wine Museum and explore the region's wine-making history.
