My wife and I were debating whether we were going to visit Murten since I was a little out of the way from our route to Munich. However, we were very thrilled to make this side visit to Murten. The entrance to this town is very charming and left us very impressed with the overall feel of this town. It was absolutely beautiful and such an easy place to get around. It was a very nice place to visit and we would highly recommend a visit even if you have to take a side excursion to reach it...

When in Murten, be sure not to miss a walk on the city walls. Access is free and even your four-legged best friend is allowed to go with (well, I had to carry her up - English Bulldogs have short legs). The walls, dating from even before the 12th Century (but finished much later), are well preserved and offer fantastic views over the town and the countryside. But be careful, some sections start to crumble a bit on the edge, so check your steps. It's open from dawn to dusk (not the other way around...that would be a bar in Mexico). It's suprising and refreshing that this is a free sight. But I wish people would be more respectful and not leave their marks here (names carved in the wood and walls, garbage on the floor). A must-do in Murten.
