From Murten station, follow the national hiking route No. 2 Murten-Laupen to the Prehl district. Walk along the Mühlebach (against the flow of the stream) to the bridge after the Im Loch district, and turn into the Crauxwald. At the edge of the Wilerholz, you can enjoy a magnificent view of Murten, the lake, the Vully, the Seeland and the Jura. Then continue towards Salvenach until you reach the Buggli forest. Cross the fields towards Oberburg, the former site of the Battle of Murten in 1476. Through the moat, you reach the village of Burg and then the Aderahubel before returning to the starting point, Murten station.
Author’s recommendation
We recommend a detour to Cluny Castle Münchenwiler with its refined atmosphere, on the site of which in the 12th century stood a priory of the Cluniac monks and which welcomes you today as a hotel and restaurant.
