+ More information 

With over 270 km of shore­li­ne, Lake Con­s­tance is one of the lar­gest lakes in Euro­pe. Due to its size and the fact that the lake is main­ly loca­ted in Swa­bia, it is also known as the Swa­bi­an Sea. One of the most beau­tiful and varied cycle paths runs along the shores of the lake. You cycle main­ly on flat paths with short clim­bs. As you cycle around the lake, you will pass the neigh­bor­ing count­ries of Aus­tria and Switz­er­land and get to know the local tra­di­ti­ons and cus­toms of the indi­vi­du­al regions.

Who is the “Lake Con­s­tance Cycle Path” cycle tour sui­ta­ble for? 
Of the appro­xi­m­ate­ly 270 km of shore­li­ne, over 60% is in Ger­man ter­ri­to­ry, 25% in Switz­er­land and the rest in Aus­tria. For the most part, the Lake Con­s­tance cycle path runs direct­ly along the shore­li­ne. This makes the scenic cycle path ide­al for beg­in­ners or child­ren who want to explo­re the Lake Con­s­tance regi­on by bike. The cycle path is well sign­pos­ted throug­hout in all three count­ries. With more than 220,000 cyclists per year, the cycle path is also very popu­lar and espe­ci­al­ly in the high sea­son the­re can the­r­e­fo­re be increased traf­fic on the cycle paths. Most cyclists take 5–8 days to cycle around Lake Con­s­tance, as a cycle tour also ser­ves to explo­re a regi­on and Lake Con­s­tance has ple­nty to offer in this respect. 
Most of the Lake Con­s­tance cycle path runs along cycle paths or quiet side roads, most of which are asphal­ted. Most of the rou­te takes you clo­se to the lakes­hore and is sign­pos­ted throughout. 
The start and finish of our cycle rou­tes on Lake Con­s­tance is in Con­s­tance. Howe­ver, as this is a cir­cu­lar rou­te around Lake Con­s­tance, you can start at any point to cycle around the 270 km of shore­li­ne. The­re are a total of 8 stages which are descri­bed in detail­ed maps. You will recei­ve the rele­vant infor­ma­ti­on mate­ri­al with your tra­vel documents. 
Con­s­tance — Kreuz­lin­gen — Romans­horn — Arbon — Ror­schach — Bre­genz — Lin­dau — Fried­richs­ha­fen — Meers­burg — Über­lin­gen — Radolf­zell — Stein am Rhein — Schaff­hau­sen — Rhi­ne Falls — Constance 
The regi­on in the south-west of Ger­ma­ny has one of the war­mest cli­ma­tes in the who­le of Ger­ma­ny and, thanks to the balan­cing effect of the lake and the near­by Alps, the cycling sea­son here is one of the lon­gest in the who­le of Ger­ma­ny. You can the­r­e­fo­re book our offers for the Lake Con­s­tance Cycle Path from April to the end of October. 
The ans­wer to this ques­ti­on is rela­tively simp­le. If you cycle around Lake Con­s­tance to the right (clock­wi­se), you will always cycle on the lake side of the road. If you cycle to the left (coun­ter-clock­wi­se), you will always have the road bet­ween you and the lake. 

Tell us three high­lights that you have dis­co­ver­ed on the long-distance cycle rou­te around Lake Con­s­tance and we will be hap­py to add to our list. We look for­ward to your tra­vel report, which we will be hap­py to publish on our Face­book page or our tra­vel blog Hori­zont­Fin­der! Or you can lea­ve a tour review on our website. 

Then plea­se cont­act us! Our tra­vel con­sul­tants will be hap­py to help you choo­se the right cycle tour for you. 
Then have your mem­ber­ship num­ber rea­dy when you book and we will grant you a dis­count on your tra­vel pri­ce. You can find all the details on our bonus page.
