A travers champs

Circular ride between the lake and the countryside of the cantons of Vaud and Fribourg

This route follows the lake and then the Grande Cariçaie nature reserve before leading you to the cobbled streets of the charming medieval village of Estavayer-le-Lac. This first section, which is almost like being at the seaside, finally switches to a more rural countryside in the lake’s hinterland between the Cantons of Vaud and Fribourg, all the time with the majestic Alps as a backdrop.

  •  Practical information

    You can shorten the itinerary: after Estavayer-le-Lac cross the countryside to Champtauroz, then Donneloye and on to Yverdon-les-Bains (see the map).
