EXTREME CONDITIONS
At an altitude of 500m above sea level, Lausanne benefits from a mild climate. Average temperature in the months of July and August is between 16°C and 26°C and humidity is average with about ⅓ of rainy days for a monthly rain level of 83mm.
Nevertheless, we invite you to review the information provided by World Athletics on how to prepare and adapt for extreme weather conditions here.
