Le Chablais

Fribourg  >  Switzerland

Beautiful wooded shore section on Lake Murten, still an insider tip and offers many of the observations the better-known neighbouring areas are famous for.

Descrição

The Chablais lies between the prominent and ornithologically interesting Mont Vully and the small Löwenberg on the northern shore of Lake Murten. The deciduous forest there is only a hundred years old. It was created by artificially lowering the water level at the end of the 19th century. A wide reedbed extends into the lake, which can be partially observed from platforms.

The beautiful footpath lends itself to practising bird song identification: The view of the reedbed and the lake is often obscured, from where Rouxinol-grande-dos-caniços, Felosa-unicolor, and rouxinol-dos-caniços call. Papa-figos, Felosa-das-figueiras, and Rouxinol-comum sing in the high treetops and thickets. Pica-pau-malhado-pequeno, Pica-pau-mediano, and Pica-pau-preto also breed here. A view from the platforms is not only rewarded with spectacular sunsets. Frango-d'água, Guarda-rios-comum and, with a bit of luck, Garça-pequena can also be seen. Andorinha-do-mar-comum, which breed on the artificial raft at the northern end of the area, often fly past.

In future, it may also be possible to observe the Águia-pesqueira more often, which is to be reintroduced to the Central Plateau. Cisne-bravo, Pato-trombeteiro, Piadeira, and Narceja-comum are not uncommon winter visitors. Finally, among the rarities observed here are the Zarro-bastardo, Zarro-de-colar, Falcão-de-pés-vermelhos, Tagarela-europeu, Merganso-pequeno, and Narceja-galega.

Detalhes

Acesso

The Le Chablais area can be reached by train either from Sugiez in the north or Muntelier-Löwenberg in the south. If you are coming from Sugiez, it is worth going first to the quay of the Canal de la Broye and looking to the left at the breeding platforms of the Andorinha-do-mar-comum. The path through the area that is closest to the water and from which you can reach the observation platforms can only be explored on foot (a cycle path runs parallel to it). Numerous information boards along the way explain the natural area.

Informação extra

Many mosquitoes breed here at the corresponding times of year. There are fewer of them on the platforms, but it is definitely advisable to take mosquito spray with you on the way.
