Reading Time: < 1 minute
Yesterday I noticed that there is a good event for people who like to walk, cycle, rollerblade, skateboard and more. The [Lavaux Slowup](https://www.veveylavauxup.ch/) is scheduled for the 9th of June 2024 this year.
The advantage of a slow up is that roads are closed to traffic so for a few hours people can benefit from the entire width of the road to cycle, walk, run, scoot, rollerblade or do other sports.
The last one I did was in Bulle and that was a relaxed loop around a lake, up and down a few hills. Two of us were on bikes and another was on roller blades.
The Lavaux slow up is linear rather than a loop. You can take the train to the start, skate or ride along the route, and then take the train home. What makes this route special is that you have a good view of the vineyards from the lake side. It doesn’t seem to go into the vineyards.
This is a golden opportunity to have an easy bike ride, or other, along the lake, without worrying about cars and other vehicles.
For once human beings have priority over vehicles.
## And Finally
In theory this is a 10km walk, so quite easy to do for most people. Cully can be reached by train and bus, and Vevey is also easy to get to, and from.
At the time of writing I intend to go.
