    Ort

It is almost like at the sea: fine white sand, turquoise waters and a light breeze. The blue and white cabins give a little Nordic air to the beach of Gletterens.

Nestled within the Grande Cariçaie, the largest lakeside nature reserve in Switzerland, this beach offers a setting that is both unspoiled and refreshing. Its soft, light sand invites relaxation, while the crystal-clear waters of Lake Neuchâtel attract swimming enthusiasts. Here, the landscape remains simple and natural, free from intrusive facilities: a perfect place to enjoy tranquility, admire the surrounding biodiversity, and escape for a day.
