Where the Ice Age left behind a paradise

Lake Constance in the four-country border region stands for unadulterated joie de vivre. The fascinating Alpine panorama in the background offers a magnificent backdrop to all types of activities: enjoyable bathing, water sports or a relaxed boat trip over the blue expanse of Lake Constance. Cycle or walking paths along the shore invite you to go on day trips. UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as the Reichenau monastery island or the prehistoric lake dwellings follow the footsteps of European civilisation. On the terraces at the idyllic harbours of Lindau or Meersburg, the regional cuisine is especially delightful and the visitors savouring it are reminded of the Mediterranean way of life. La dolce vita!
