Cycling day trip from Radolfzell to Reichenau

This scenic cycling route takes you from the pretty town of Radolfzell on the western shore of Lake Constance (Bodensee) to the historic island of Reichenau—a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its medieval monasteries and lush vegetable gardens.

Starting in Radolfzell, you’ll enjoy charming lakeside views and a relaxed atmosphere. The route is about 28.5 km and predominantly paved, winding along peaceful bike paths and quiet roads. You’ll get some good exercise too—there’s a bit of climbing and descending, but nothing too extreme.

Enjoy the fresh air as you pedal through small villages and past orchards typical for this part of southern Germany. As you arrive on Reichenau Island, take time to explore its ancient churches and maybe grab a bite at one of the local cafés. This ride is great for anyone who loves water views, heritage, and a mix of easygoing pedaling with occasional hill challenges!
