Menhirs of Clendy

Highlight • Monument

In a forest clearing on the eastern edge of town, near the main road towards Estavayer-le-Lac, is the Clendy Alignement, a prehistoric stone avenue. It consists of 45 menhirs and statue menhirs and is the most impressive megalithic complex in Switzerland. The stones were discovered in 1878 as a result of the Jura water correction with lowering of the lake water level, erected in 1975 and in 1986 the system was restored.

Champ-Pittet Observation Tower – Grande Cariçaie Nature Reserve

Highlight • Viewpoint

Obligatory stop to admire the Grande Cariçaie reserve.

The new observation tower, inaugurated in March 2018, offers visitors three floors to enjoy the panorama of the Grande Cariçaie and benefit from a new observation point at water level, dear to photographers. This architectural jewel is made of 100% Swiss wood. Since the end of May 2019, it has been equipped with dry toilets.

At the end of the marsh trail, you will find a pontoon perfect for observation.
A little corner of paradise from where you can observe the characteristic animals of the marsh.
With binoculars, a camera, or just your sharp eyes, stay still, quiet, and watch.
