For more than 400 years – since 1603 – Château d’Auvernier has been family-owned. With a correspondingly venerable tradition, viticulture has been practiced on around 60 hectares on Lake Neuchâtel since that time. The various grape varieties are used to produce Chardonnay, Chasselas, Gamaret, Garanoir, Merlot, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc wines, which can be tasted and purchased on site. A visit is worthwhile: https://chateau-auvernier.ch/de/home.

Suspended between lake, vineyard and mountain, the medieval village of La Neuveville is one of the most beautiful villages in Switzerland. In the old town, enjoy the beautiful colorful facades, the superb views of the cliffs and Lake Biel, and the small cobbled streets.

Beautiful harbor on the north-east shore of Lake Neuchâtel with sailing boats and a few yachts. You can also watch many wind sailors and surfers at their activities. A small cafe invites you to take a break. The harbor is definitely worth a photo stop.
