In Lausanne, secrets shimmer just beneath Lake Geneva’s calm surface—a city where champions are crowned and legends are quietly rewritten in garden shadows.

This self-guided audio tour winds you from the hallowed halls of the International Olympic Committee to lush botanical gardens and the world of elite rowing. Discover corners even seasoned locals overlook, where scandal and triumph share the same winding paths as quiet botanists and world-famous athletes.

What tense showdown once threatened the Olympic legacy right in these streets? Which rare plant hides a story that once shook Swiss science? And why did one rower’s midnight decision ripple across the shores for decades?

Follow Lausanne’s tracks of power, protest, and unexpected beauty. Feel the rush of possibility with every turn. Give the familiar skyline new meaning with every whispered secret and echo of applause.

Begin the journey into Lausanne’s hidden arenas. The stories waiting are anything but ordinary.
