Rencontres & Inspiration
IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF FAMOUS GUESTS OF MONTREUX RIVIERA
Rencontres & Inspiration (Encounters & Inspiration) invites you to discover different places in Montreux Riviera: well-known locations and unexpected sites, through the vineyards of Lavaux, the lush mountains overlooking the area, quays lined with flowers and urban districts, from Villeneuve to Lutry.
In order to enjoy Rencontres & Inspiration fully there is an application to guide you using your smartphone or a tablet. At each bench, anecdotes and exclusive multimedia content will give you an additional overview of each famous person.
To help you find the special benches, the free app, Rencontres & Inspiration, uses a geolocation system to guide you.
It also gives access to additional content near to each bench about each famous visitor, including anecdotes about their stay in Montreux Riviera and an augmented reality multimedia experience. All along the route, there will be audio playback, exclusive interviews, animations or video clips to be discovered.
