Aigle Castle
In olden times, it housed the Confederates' cellars, then it became the county's vine, wine and labels museum following the Guillon Fraternity's initiative in 1971. Today the castle maintains the Vaudoise winegrowing heritage, tells the story of wine and houses a collection of wine labels going as far back as the beginning of the 19th century all the way through to 1960.

Adventure Park
Aigle's Adventure Park, in the Fahy forest, offers 7 different tall tree courses at levels to suit daredevil thrill-seekers as well as those of a less intrepid disposition. Kitted out with a harness and carabiners, adventurers weave their way through the forest some 15m off the ground, swinging from tree to tree on rope bridges, wriggling through moving aerial wooden tunnels and onto narrow platforms where they can launch themselves into the void on the thrilling flying foxes.
