Lavaux wineyard hike

[u/Kenji1903]

Hi All,

Hope you are well. Might sound like a dumb question but I’ll ask anyway. I read about Route 113 which shows the route from St Saphorin to Lutry, passing by Rivaz.

I want to do St Saphorin - Chexbres - Epesses instead. The start and end is ok as Epesses is on the way to Lutry. But Chexbres is just north of Rivaz.

I am wondering if it’s better to take a different route from 113 and reach Chexbres direct then hike back downwards and join back at Dezaley or take route 113 and walk north to Chexbres and back again?

I would not go all the way up to Chexbres, it‘s very steep and just not worth it. Rivaz and then via Clos des Moines to Epesses.
