A cycling route starting in Kreuzlingen, Thurgau, Switzerland.

Overview

About this route

2

The first climb is steep (no cold muscles!). Above the railway crossing, on the left is a shooting range with a large parking lot = view back towards the Lake Constance panorama.

A short detour above the target wall to the left to a beautiful nature reserve with 3 ponds. The path north of the western swamp area is NOT!!! suitable for cycling!

North of the large Bommer pond, there is a rest area with benches, a fire pit, and fresh drinking water.

Before the bridge over the highway, there is a 'boulder garden' with glacial debris found during construction work.

At Hohrain (Wäldli), in the forest on the right, there is a (new) observation tower at the spot where Napoleon III had an observation and pleasure tower built.

On the left, the Thur valley and Alpine panorama on a clear day.

The descent to Steckborn is very steep and runs on a relatively busy road without a bike lane.

In Steckborn, there is a great recreational park by the lake near the boat dock. There is the option to take a URh boat to Konstanz and Kreuzlingen, or simply cross over to Reichenau or go to Stein am Rhein, Schaffhausen, or Gaienhofen, Hemmenhofen (timetables on URh.ch or BSB.de).
