Cycling day trip from Arbon to Kreuzlingen

This scenic cycling route takes you from the charming lakeside town of Arbon to lively Kreuzlingen, hugging the Swiss shores of Lake Constance almost the whole way. It’s just under 30 km with gentle hills (about 105 meters of total ascent), making it a pretty relaxed ride even if you’re not a hardcore cyclist.

You’ll spend most of your time on smooth, quiet roads and dedicated cycleways—so expect a peaceful pedal with great lakeside views! Arbon is known for its medieval old town and lovely promenade, so consider grabbing a lakeside coffee before heading out. Along the route, you’ll pass through small villages, fruit orchards, and past the ever-present blue shimmer of the lake.

Kreuzlingen awaits at the end, sharing the border with Germany and right next to the vibrant city of Konstanz. If you’ve got time, check out the Seeburg Park or take a stroll by the border crossing. Whether you’re in it for the cycling or the lakeside vibes, this easy-paced route is a Lake Constance highlight.
