Cycling day trip from Überlingen to Friedrichshafen

Überlingen to Friedrichshafen Cycling Route

Starting your ride in the charming lakeside town of Überlingen, you’ll roll out along the north shore of Lake Constance, taking in beautiful lake views and gentle hills. This roughly 33.6 km ride (about 21 miles) is mostly on smooth paved paths and quiet roads, making it a relaxed journey for most cyclists. The route gently ascends and descends (less than 150m up and 170m down), so you’ll get a little exercise without any tough climbs.

Überlingen is well-loved for its historic old town and the impressive St. Nicholas Church—you might want to take a quick look before you hit the road! As you cycle along, you’ll pass through picturesque orchards, vineyards, and small lakeside villages, with plenty of spots to stop for a snack or a swim.

The ride ends in Friedrichshafen, famous for its Zeppelin Museum and lakeside promenade. It’s a laid-back town with great views across Lake Constance to the Swiss Alps. This route is ideal if you want to soak up the Bodensee scenery with minimal traffic and maximum enjoyment. Happy cycling!
