Winter by the lake – calm and gentle moments
Far from the hustle and bustle, winter reveals a different side of the Estavayer-le-Lac region. The light becomes softer, landscapes open up, and time seems to slow down. It is the perfect season to recharge, explore local heritage, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere by the lake.
Winter walks
In winter, the shores of Lake Neuchâtel invite visitors to take relaxing walks. Cleared paths, fresh air, and ever-changing reflections on the water create an ideal setting for relaxation and contemplation. A stroll along the lakeside or through the old town’s narrow streets offers a chance to rediscover the region in a calm and authentic way.
Les Rives Zen
Located directly on the lakeshore, this place is dedicated to relaxation: a sauna, a heated caravan, and a cold bath provide a rejuvenating experience combining warmth and freshness.
Cultural discoveries
The region is particularly well suited for cultural exploration. The Abbatiale of Payerne, a jewel of Romanesque art, as well as the region’s historical sites and museums, can be visited in a peaceful atmosphere, away from the crowds. A wonderful way to combine culture and tranquility, whatever the weather.
Ideas for enjoying winter
Walks, family activities, cultural or culinary discoveries – the region offers plenty of ideas to enjoy winter, even when the days grow shorter.
