The ensemble of old half-timbered houses, cobblestones, village fountains and churches makes the old town of Laupen a real gem. It is one of the most beautiful in the region and should be part of every cycling tour in this area.

Broye Canal

Highlight • River

Broye Canal
The Broye has its origins in the Fribourg Prealps. After flowing through the cantons of Fribourg and Vaud, it flows into Lake Murten in Salavaux. On the other side of the lake, the Broye flows out again in the form of an artificial canal. The Broye Canal, which connects Lake Murten with Lake Neuchâtel, is a must for anyone who wants to explore the Three Lakes region on foot, by bike or by boat.
A few thousand years ago, Lake Murten, Lake Neuchâtel and Lake Biel formed a single large body of water, on whose shores the first Swiss inhabitants settled. Remains of that time still exist today: the prehistoric pile dwellings are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In that long-ago time, Mont Vully, which was only connected to the shore by a thin sandy path, protruded from the middle of the lake. Due to their history and the development of various leisure opportunities, both the Three Lakes region and Mont Vully are known and popular among all Swiss people.
