Experiences in Lake Murten

The caves were excavated in the sandstone between 1916 and 1917 to defend the Swiss plateau during the First World War. A 200 metre-long tunnel was created in the process.

In the Papiliorama and Nocturama in the canton Fribourg you can immerse yourself in tropical worlds. Observe over 1000 free-flying butterflies, encounter nocturnal animals and walk through a recreated tropical forest.

The vegetables cultivated in the Seeland region are indicated by signboards on the vegetable trails. All signage is regularly checked or relocated.

The vineyards of Vully offer three thematic educational trails suitable for visitors and holidaymakers of all ages. Viny, the viticultural trail’s mascot, leads the way.

The ice rink with a heart: Murten on Ice is not only an ice rink – it is a meeting place between generations, between locals and visitors, between athletes and those who skate for fun.

Lake Murten truly is a paradise for water sports enthusiasts. Due to its relatively shallow depth, Lake Murten warms up relatively quickly, so it reaches pleasant bathing temperatures earlier than elsewhere.
