BAREC Excursion

We meet at the site of the company at 14:35. BAREC is very close to EPFL. An easy way is to take the metro to the station Epenex and then walk to BAREC (see below). 

Ch de la Motte  5
1024 Ecublens

Prof. Ludwig will wait for you and announce the group at the reception.

ATTENTION: It is a very busy site with a lot of trucks arriving and leaving. Please stand close together as a group and remain close in front of the entrance door of the reception when you arrive. During the entire tour please stay closely together and watch out that you do not stand in the way of any trucks or dredgers.

It is recommended to wear good solid shoes. As we stay mainly outside or in industrial halls, it can get quite cold. It is advised to wear warm clothing.  

Possible connection with a 15 minutes walk (there are not many parking lots, please come by bike or public traffic):
