Lake Constance Family bike

Lake Constance for the whole family around the Upper Lake

Itinerary

Route

Tour profile/Level 1:

The area is flat without any climbs. You mostly cycle on asphaltet cycle paths along the shore of the lake or along the lakeside roads. This tour is suitable for families with kids.

Day 1: Constance/Kreuzlingen

Individual arrival. Take the opportunity to take a stroll through the old town of Constance or visit the Sea Life Center’s aquariums.

Day 2: Constance – Unteruhldingen/Meersburg – Constance, approx. 30 km + boat trips

First you cycle to Wallhausen, from where a boat takes you to the other side of the lake to Überlingen. You then cycle along the lake to the Birnau monastery church, where you can enjoy a great view of the lake. In Unteruhldingen you visit the prehistoric pile dwellings. From Meersburg a car ferry takes you back to Constance.

Day 3: Conctance – Meersburg – Friedrichshafen, approx. 25 km + ferry

From Konstanz, take the ferry to Meersburg. Visit the castle there and let yourself be transported back to the Middle Ages. Continue not far from the shore of Lake Constance to Friedrichshafen. Technology enthusiasts will get their money’s worth at the Zeppelin Museum and gain insights into the history of airship travel.

Day 4: Friedrichshafen – Lindau, approx. 30 km

You can cycle today if you want, but the tour is quite hilly. Therefore you can easily take the bus (not incl.) from Friedrichshafen to the amusement park. Here you can enjoy your day, play and discover.

Day 5: Lindau – Rorschach/Arbon, approx. 35-45 km

From Lindau you will cycle directly along the lakeshore towards the drama festival town of Bregenz with its unique lakeside stage. Here you should take a first break and go to the Pfänder by cable car (incl.). Enjoy the wonderful view across the lake and visit the game park. After the cable car brought you down again, you continue to cycle and cross the border of Switzerland before you reach Rorschach or Arbon.

Day 6: Rorschach/Arbon – Constance/Kreuzlingen, approx. 30-50 km

On the last stage of your trip, you will cycle back to Constance via Romanshorn. There, you should enjoy your last evening while visiting the old town or eating some ice cream near the harbour.

Day 7: Constance/Kreuzlingen

Individual departure or extension.
