Venoge (river)

The Venoge (French pronunciation: [vənɔʒ]) is a Swiss river located in the canton of Vaud, a tributary of the Rhône, via Lake Geneva.

The Swiss poet Jean Villard wrote a poem about it, La Venoge, in 1954.

The Venoge has its source at L'Isle in the canton of Vaud and flows down to Lake Geneva, at Saint-Sulpice.

[2] Between its source in L'Isle and Lake Geneva, la Venoge runs through Cuarnens, La Chaux, Moiry, Chevilly, Ferreyres, La Sarraz, Éclépens, Lussery-Villars, Daillens, Cossonay, Penthalaz, Penthaz, Gollion, Vufflens-la-Ville, Aclens, Bussigny-près-Lausanne, Bremblens, Échandens, Écublens, Denges, Préverenges to finally reach Saint-Sulpice.

In 1913 it was described as splitting at La Sarraz, with the smaller part joining to the Mozon, which flows into Lake Neuchâtel at Yverdon-les-Bains, and the main part turning to the south and flowing into Lake Geneva east of Morges.
