Gita in bici di un giorno da Kreuzlingen a Sciaffusa

This cycling route takes you from Kreuzlingen, right on the Swiss shore of Lake Constance, all the way to Schaffhausen, home of the mighty Rhine Falls. Covering about 66 km, you’ll ride mostly on smooth, paved surfaces with just a hint of gravel and some quiet country tracks. The terrain is a pleasant mix, with around 765 meters of climbing and lovely rolling hills.

Leaving Kreuzlingen, you’ll enjoy peaceful lake views before heading inland through gentle landscapes dotted with villages and farmland. The ride keeps you away from busy roads, favoring cycle paths and quiet byways, so you can soak up the scenery at your own pace. If you need a break, there are plenty of small towns along the way where you can grab a coffee or a snack.

As you approach Schaffhausen, you’ll notice the scenery shift, with the picturesque Rhine snaking through the valley. Don’t miss a peek at the Munot fortress towering over the town, and of course, make time to visit the spectacular Rhine Falls—Europe’s largest waterfall—just a short spin from the city center. It’s a satisfying ride with lots to see, perfect for a scenic day out!
