Route

Tour profile/level 2:

The area is flat without any climbs, just moderately hilly in the Höri region. You bike on cycle paths, mostly along the shore of the lake, no major uphill stretches. The legs have distances from 50 to 85 km and are suited for a sportive tour.

From Constance you will cycle along the Gnadensee and into the old imperial town of Radolfzell.

You will continue on along the lakeshore through well-kept Swiss fishing villages on your way back to Constance.
