Light and open to the outside, the veranda is suitable for committee meetings, management days, and small-group seminars. A display screen can be installed for a workshop or presentation. 

It is also the space chosen by groups who want to continue their activities without changing rooms: the morning session, the lunch or the evening dinner on site at noon. In summer, the adjacent terrace extends the break outside.

Indoor or Outdoor depending on the weather

Karting on a privatized track

Adrenaline and laughter guaranteed, with no physical prerequisites required.

Your teams compete on a track reserved for your own group. Karting requires no particular physical skill: the 55-year-old sales representative and the 22-year-old trainee start off on equal terms. This makes it a bonding activity rather than a performance activity.

Karts 270 cm³, speeds up to 70 km/h, on the 900-meter indoor track — the longest in Europe. 1,050-meter outdoor circuit available on request.

Accessibility
Indoor all year round · outdoor depending on the weather
Duration
About 2 hours
Age
From the age of 16 in a 270cc single-cylinder motorcycle
Track
Privatized for your group
Season: March to November

Payerneland Tower

A vertical challenge of 20 meters, where everyone chooses their own level.

Five levels of athletic obstacles, with several different difficulty levels at each level. And above all: a main staircase allows you to skip the levels you don’t want to do.

That’s what makes the activity usable with an entire team. No one is forced to do everything; no one stands on the sidelines watching. Everyone takes their own share of responsibility and the group reaches the top together.

On the 5th floor, an aperitif with panoramic views of Payerne. And to get back down, a giant slide from the top floor. 

Accessibility
March to November
Duration
Approximately 2 hours for all levels
Age
Modifiable route, detour staircase
Track
Panoramic aperitif at the summit
Indoor, all year round

Indoor mini-golf

An 18-hole course, where the ability to hit the ball counts more than physical condition.

The course has 18 holes, fully covered and heated. It is played all year round, without depending on the weather or any external factors.

The players advance in small groups of three or four, which allows for part of the team to rotate while the other one races in a go-kart. The activity is played at all ages and requires no physical prerequisites, making it usable with an entire group.

Accessibility
Covered and heated, all year round
Duration
1 to 2 hours depending on the group

All ages, no prerequisites

Why Payerneland

Central for multi-site businesses

Payerne is 30 minutes from Lausanne, Fribourg and Yverdon, and 5 minutes from the motorway exit. If your employees come from several locations, no one has to travel any further than the others. Free parking for 250 cars, accessible to coaches.

The technique is not your problem

A member of our team is on site to deliver a presentation, adjust the sound, or check a connection. On the day of the event, you’re in charge of the content, not the equipment.

Prix de l'Excellence at the Swiss Location Award

30 years of business events and a management degree from the Hotel School of Lausanne.
