Sports
With easy access to the lake and the mountains, a multitude of sports can be practised at Neuchâtel. In winter and summer alike, Sports universitaires de l’Université de Neuchâtel (SUN) offers a range of different activities.
From skiing and snowshoeing to golf, tennis and sailing, some 110 courses and over 50 different sports are offered on a weekly basis. Besides traditional sports – including gym facilities – UniNE students have the opportunity to practise more unusual activities, such as aikido, aikibudo, capoeira and various types of dance. Also on offer is a large range of “wellbeing” disciplines, helping you to prioritise your health. Located at the Saint-Blaise harbor, the Water Sports Centre offers windsurfing, wingfoiling, pump foiling, as well as sailing, paddleboarding and kayaking.
Most sports are free to practise, or competitively priced.
