Tips for your trips. Tourist information. Official websites.
Lake Constance refers to three bodies of water on the Rhine at the northern foot of the Alps. The lake is situated where Germany, Switzerland, and Austria meet. The Bodensee and its shores are very beautiful in a quiet, cultivated way. The views are serene, not spectacular.
Its shorelines lie in the German states of Baden – Württemberg and Bavaria, the Swiss cantons of St. Gallen, Thurgau, and Schaffhausen, and the Austrian state of Vorarlberg.

The most populous towns on the Upper Lake are Constance > Friedrichshafen (map), Bregenz (map), Lindau (map), Überlingen (map) and *Kreuzlingen (map). The largest town on the Lower Lake is Radolfzell am Bodensee (map).
Biking around the lake is also possible on the 261 km (162 mi) long trail called “Bodensee-Radweg” (+ cycling-lake-constance.com). It brings its visitors to the most interesting sites and goes around the whole lake. Nevertheless, various shortcuts via ferries allow shorter routes and the trail is suitable for all levels.
The 260 kilometers long Lake Constance circular route, signposted as “Bodensee Rundwanderweg“, leads around Lake Constance through the territories of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. It is mainly intended for hiking; cyclists follow the sometimes slightly different managed Lake Constance cycle path.
Swimming in the lake is usually possible from mid-June to mid-September.

LAKE CONSTANCE Travel Guide.
Hello and greetings from Lake Constance (Bodensee) – a lake bordered by Germany, Switzerland and Austria!
In this video, we’ll be focusing our travels along the German side where we spent a couple of days enjoying what the destination has to offer.
We’ll first take you on a foodie biking tour departing from Radolfzell and touring the Höri Peninsula where we’ll try all sorts of fresh seasonal foods. We’ll spend a bit of time exploring the city of Konstanz on foot. We’ll then hop on a ferry and cross Lake Constance from west to east, enjoying the scenery along the way. Plus, when we arrive in Lindau, we’ll take you on a self-guided wine tour where we’ll hike and enjoy a picnic in a vineyard.
