Nyon is a picturesque small town on the northern shores of Lake Geneva (Lac Léman) in Switzerland. The town is mostly famous for its white castle and roman columns. Nyon has excellent transportation links to Genève and Lausanne and is a popular day-trip destination from these Swiss cities.
Nyon is across the lake from Yvoire, a medieval-look small town in France. Frequent passenger ferry services connect these towns making it often easier to travel to Yvoire via Nyon than across land routes on the southern shores of Lac Léman.
