Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Kreuzlingen à Friedrichshafen

Get ready for a scenic ride along gorgeous Lake Constance! Starting out in Kreuzlingen, a lively Swiss town right on the border with Germany, you’ll roll past waterfront parks and charming villages. Kreuzlingen itself is known for its lakeside promenade and offers views across the water to nearby Konstanz.

You’ll stick to mostly paved paths (a comfy 94% of the way), with just a little bit of gravel to keep things interesting. The route hugs the shoreline for much of the ride, with the lake never far from view as you meander through rolling countryside and quiet roads. Expect a few hills, but nothing too punishing—the total ascent is around 745 meters, giving you plenty of chances to cruise down as well.

The path is mostly a mix of bike trails and peaceful roads, making it a relaxed choice even if you’re more into sightseeing than setting speed records. You’ll finish up in Friedrichshafen, a German lakeside city famous for zeppelins and boasting a beautiful harbor. It’s a perfect spot to grab a drink on a terrace and toast your ride!
