Chevroux

Chevroux has served as an agricultural settlement on Lake Neuchâtel in Vaud since the Middle Ages. The municipality occupies the lake’s southern shore, where open farmland meets the Grande Cariçaie, Switzerland’s largest lakeside wetland. Lake Neuchâtel is the country’s largest lake lying wholly within Switzerland, and Chevroux’s harbour keeps the water central to local life. Reed beds and shallow margins provide habitat for water birds, while the surrounding Broye plain gives the settlement a notably lowland character for western Switzerland.
