Glide along the calm waters of Lake Neuchâtel and let yourself be guided into the heart of one of Switzerland’s natural gems: the Grande Cariçaie. From the comfort of your canoe, you’ll gently explore an unspoilt environment of reeds, water birds and lake vegetation.
Accompanied by a biologist, you’ll discover the unsuspected wealth of this nature reserve: migratory bird calls, beaver tracks, furtive flights or floating silhouettes… Every moment is an opportunity to marvel and learn.
The excursion scrupulously respects the areas accessible to the public and the rules for protecting the site. To ensure the tranquillity of the wildlife, dogs are not allowed.
