By bicycle from Bregenz to Lindau

This route is a lovely lakeside jaunt from Bregenz, Austria, to Lindau, Germany – two charming towns hugging the edge of Lake Constance (Bodensee). Starting in Bregenz, famous for its floating stage and summer opera festival, you’ll glide along mostly paved and very bike-friendly roads, with a mix of quiet cycleways and scenic living streets.

The ride is just under 10 kilometers, so it’s perfect for a relaxed outing rather than a race. There’s barely any climbing involved, so you can take it easy and enjoy lake views all the way. Expect a few cobblestone sections as you pass through older town areas, adding a dash of character to your ride.

You’ll finish in Lindau, a postcard-perfect island town with its medieval old town and lakeside promenade—a great spot for a coffee or ice cream. With almost the whole route on safe, well-maintained surfaces, this ride is ideal for all levels. Don’t forget your camera—both start and finish are photogenic hotspots!
