blank_pageLake of Murten (Morat)
It is only 8 kilometres long and 2.8
broad but still very popular to boaters because it has with the Broye-canal a
connection to the Lake of Neuenburg (Neuchâtel) and with the Zihl-canal another
one to the Lake of Biel (Bienne). Together, the three lakes are the biggest
water-sport estuary lying entirely on Swiss territory. The beautiful medieval
town of Murten and the wines of Mont Vully contribute as well to the popularity
of this region.
