Right on the Murten harbour promenade, the Murtensee Sailing School offers a wide range of boats for rent. Pedalos, many with built-in slides, are perfect for relaxing outings on the lake. Motorboats and sporty sailboats are also available for more adventurous experiences on the water.
Pedalos
Explore Lake Murten at your own pace with a pedal boat. Some come with built-in slides – great fun, especially for kids. The boats offer space for several people, making them ideal for families or groups.
Motorboats
If you prefer to move a bit faster, the school’s motorboats are a great option. No license is required, they’re easy to handle and come with a steering wheel and a bathing ladder.
Sailboats
Experienced sailors can rent sporty “Surprise” keelboats. Newcomers can take a short introduction with the sailing school before taking the helm themselves.
