Cycling day trip from Radolfzell to Stein am Rhein

This scenic cycling route takes you from Radolfzell, a lively town perched on the western end of Lake Constance, to the charming Swiss gem of Stein am Rhein. The ride covers just over 26 kilometers and is mostly on smooth pavement, making it an easy roll for most cyclists, with a mellow ascent and descent along the way—nothing too challenging.

You'll leave behind Radolfzell’s pretty waterfront and bustling old town vibe, cruising along quiet country roads and well-maintained cycle paths. The easygoing terrain meanders past lush fields and quaint villages, sometimes hugging the Rhine’s shoreline. With almost no busy roads, it’s a relaxed ride where your biggest distraction might be the beautiful lake views or the occasional swan.

Stein am Rhein offers a picture-perfect finish with its vividly painted medieval houses and cobbled streets. Take some time to stroll through the old town or grab a riverside coffee before hopping back on your bike—or just enjoy the satisfaction of connecting two lakeside communities, each with their own unique story.
