Bicycle tours in Vorarlberg

The Rhine Cycle Route, or D-Route 8, runs along the Rhine on German territory from Lake Constance to the Dutch border.

"When I see the lake, I don't need the sea anymore!" This saying probably best sums up what it means to vacation at Lake Constance. In fact, you pass through three countries during one bike tour: Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Lake Constance is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the whole of Germany. The mild climate, the pretty lakeside towns, three countries, the proximity to the mountains and the many cultural attractions attract countless visitors every year to the "Swabian Sea", as the lake is also called.

A cross-border-fun through Germany, Austria and Switzerland is guaranteed on the Lake Constance cycle path.

This cycle tour from Lindau takes us via Bregenz, Rheineck, Horn, Arbon, Romanshorn to Kreuzlingen and finally to Constance. In addition to numerous cultural highlights, we can always take a break for a swim or simply enjoy the view of Lake Constance.

The Lake Constance cycle path with its 216 kilometres in total is one of the most popular long-distance cycle tracks in Europe - and deservedly so. Along the idyllic shores of Lake Constance we drive clockwise through the cultural landscape of the picturesque four-country-region. Always keeping an eye on the wonderful Alpine foreland.

On this almost 250 km long long-distance cycle route, we follow the course of the Rhine from the Austrian-Swiss border almost to the French border in Basel. 

The "Rhine Route", known in the European cycle route network as EuroVelo 15, follows the river of the same name from its source in the Swiss mountains to its mouth in the Netherlands, from the Alps to the North Sea. It crosses 4 countries (Switzerland, France, Germany and the Netherlands), 9 Unesco World Heritage sites, and covers 1230 km of track.

Ziel ist die Umrundung Deutschland's; Dies ist die Etappe Hemmenhofen bis Lindau a. Bodensee, mit Schlenker nach Schaffhausen.
