Day 1: Individual arrival in Constance

Welcome to the largest city on the lake! Before you set off on your Active Bike Tour around Lake Constance tomorrow, take it easy today. Stroll through the narrow streets of the old town and soak up the Baden-Alemannic atmosphere: With a shandy in the beer garden at the harbor or an ice cream with a view of the snow-covered peaks of the Alps. Or would you like to warm up on a bike? With its cycle path, cycle bridge and countless cyclists, Constance is known as the cycling capital of the lake.

Day 2: Constance – Stein am Rhein – Constance, approx. 75 km

On the first stage of your tour around Active Bike Tour around Lake Constance, you cycle around Untersee, which many consider to be the most beautiful part of Lake Constance! Pass the island of Reichenau and head towards Radolfzell. Radolfzell is followed by the idyllic Höri peninsula. Otto Dix and Hermann Hesse once lived there and drew inspiration for their works. If you let your gaze wander, you will see why. Continue on to Stein am Rhein. The little town is ideal for a break. If the stage up to here is too flat for you, we recommend a detour to Hohenklingen Castle. The route takes you back to Constance along the Swiss shore.

Day 3: Constance – Lindau / Bregenz, approx. 50 / 65 km + ferry ride

Your day begins with a ferry ride to Meersburg. From the pier, you cycle along the Lake Constance cycle path through Immenstaad and Hagnau to Friedrichshafen. If you are a technology fan, you should interrupt the stage for a visit to the Zeppelin Museum. It's well worth it! You then cycle through lush and fragrant orchards to the Bavarian town of Lindau. Be sure to make a detour to Lindau's old town island. Greeting the lion at the harbor entrance is also part of your Active Bike Tour around Lake Constance! If you stay overnight in Bregenz, the festival city is only a few kilometers away.

Day 4: Bregenz – Constance, approx. 70 – 80 km

The Rhine delta marks the border between Austria and Switzerland. The Alpine Rhine flows there with its fresh mountain water into Lake Constance. In Stein am Rhein it continues its long journey to the North Sea, but you have already seen that for yourself. The Lake Constance cycle path to Constance is now easy to master. Again and again you will pass bathing spots. Don't forget your swimsuit! Back in Constance, you can be proud of yourself: You have mastered your Active Bike Tour around Lake Constance in just three days!
