Take a short tour of Lake Constance with our map and travel information

Where can you take a short vacation around a lake and see three countries? Try the Bodensee, otherwise known as Lake Constance.

Mainau Island

We enjoyed our outing on Mainau Island. You can easily spend an entire day there. See our Mainau Island Pictures to get a taste of one of Lake Constance's top attractions.

Meersburg

Meersburg is one of those charming medieval villages like Rothenburg, except it's accessible from the water. See our Meersburg Planning Guide to find out more.

Reichenau Island

The Benedictine Abbey of Reichenau Island on Lake Constance was founded in 724. By the 10th century it became one of the leading centers for the production of illuminated manuscripts in Europe. The island is well-equipped with small and free museums ideal for relating its monastic history--and is small enough for a day trip. Cyclists may like the flat island and its scenic roads. See our Reichenau Island Pictures for a virtual tour.
