Due to its southern location, Lake Constance offers a particularly long cycling season from spring to autumn. We recommend using the off-season, as the bike paths are less crowded here. Already in April, when the fruit trees are in bloom, the temperatures are pleasant for cycling. From the end of June, the water of the lake is warm enough to go swimming and cool off after a long tour.
