Day 1: Individual arrival in Constance, cycle tour to Lindau, approx. 50 km + ferry ride
Welcome to your bike trip around Lake Constance! Arrive in Constance by 10 a.m., drop off your luggage and get right on your bike. You cycle to Staad, a district of Constance, and from there take the car ferry to Meersburg. The ferry docks in the small medieval town of Meersburg. Take your time and visit the oldest inhabited castle in Germany. On flat paths you roll through the wine and holiday resorts of Hagnau and Immenstaad to Friedrichshafen. Strengthened, a visit to the Zeppelin Museum is worthwhile, not only for technology fans. Your bike trip continues through a nature reserve to Eriskirch and the beautiful small holiday resorts of Langenargen, Kressbronn and Wasserburg. Always with the Swiss Alps in view, you continue cycling through meadow orchards to your first stage destination. The island town of Lindau welcomes you with the Bavarian lion at the famous harbour entrance.
Day 2: Lindau – Arbon, approx. 50 km
On beautiful flat paths along the shore of Lake Constance, your bike trip will soon take you to Bregenz in Austria. As there are many opportunities for swimming along the shore. Refreshed, you explore the capital of Vorarlberg and its famous lake stage of the festival. In good weather, a trip to the local mountain Pfänder is also worthwhile. From up here you have a great view of Lake Constance and around 240 Alpine peaks. After this excursion, your bike trip takes you further into Switzerland and the Rhine Delta nature reserve. If there is still time, make a detour to Altenrhein. Here you will find the Hundertwasser Hall, the last building by the famous artist. Afterwards, you cycle towards your today's stage destination Arbon.
Day 3: Arbon – Constance, approx. 30 km
The last day of your bike trip around Lake Constance takes you through the swiss canton Thurgau. The cycle path runs mostly parallel to the lakeshore, past numerous apple orchards for which the region is famous. There are many opportunities to take a break for a swim along this route. Again and again you cycle through small picturesque villages. Your bike tour continues leisurely until you cross the state border at Kreuzlingen and are back at the starting point. Since you will spend another night in Constance, there are many opportunities to explore this beautiful city on this day. Stroll through the narrow streets of the old town and through the oldest part of town, Niederburg, not far from the cathedral with its many small wine taverns.
Day 4: Individual departure
After breakfast, your bike trip around Lake Constance ends. Before you leave, visit the flower island of Mainau or the neighbouring town of Kreuzlingen. If not already done the day before, use the time to stroll through the beautiful old town of Constance and along the lively harbour.
