Lake Constance cycle path
Bike tour through Germany, Austria and Switzerland
You start your tour in Constance, Lake Constance’s biggest town. 600 years ago this was where the Council of Constance took place, the only council to elect a pope that was held north of the Alps. The Rhine leaves Lake Constance here: 0 kilometres on its way to the North Sea. Only a few minutes by foot from the medieval town centre is the Swiss town of Kreuzlingen with its lively harbour.
First you cycle along the Gnadensee lake to the old imperial and present-day spa town of Radolfzell. From here you cross the Bodanrück and have to accept a very short ascent. The Überlinger Lake Überlingen makes up for this with great views.
Your journey today takes you along the Obersee. First of all stop off at the Birnau pilgrimage church. Surrounded by vineyards, the forecourt of the splendidly decorated Baroque church offers a wonderful view over the lake. Visit the piledwelling museum in Unteruhldingen, the oldest inhabited castle inhabited castle in Germany in Meersburg and be impressed by the largest the largest collection on the history of aviation.
The old town centre of Lindau is located on an island. Enjoy the view of the Alps from the harbour view of the Alps from the harbour - with the city's landmarks in the foreground: the Bavarian Lion and the 33 metre high lighthouse.
Today you cycle to Lindau and Bregenz, which is famous for its annual festivals on the biggest outdoor stage of the world (located on the Lake). Afterwards you cross the Rhine delta – an important nature reserve. Your overnight stay is in the region of Höchst/Rorschach.
Today your tour takes you through Romanshorn which is home to Switzerland's largest harbour on Lake Constance. Now you continue on along the banks of Lake Constance back to Constance. Wander through the old town or enjoy an ice cream.
Passing pittoresque Swiss fishing villages along the south bank of Lake Untersee you cycle to Stein on Rhine and further on to Schaffhausen.
Excursion to the Rhine waterfalls, then on the other side of the Rhine back to Stein on Rhine. Along the river Höri to Gaienhofen, where you take the boat to the island Reichenau and back to Constance.
Individual departure
After breakfast, you start your individual return journey home or extend your stay.
