The cycle tour from Munich to Lake Constance will see you cycle past alongside flower-filled meadows, tranquil forests and golden fields. Smaller lakes such as the Ammersee or Lake Starnberg that you pass along the way invite you to hop off the bike and explore in more detail.

Dip your tired feet into crystal-clear lakes and enjoy the surrounding mountain scenery. There are also many cultural highlights in the region which will be remembered as much as the beautiful natural scenery.

Details about the cycle tour from Munich to Lake Constance

The seven-day cycle tour in southern Germany offers a mix of cultural highlights and natural scenery. The incredible Alps, lakeside views, lush fields and dramatic forests make cycling easy as you travel from Munich via Füssen, Schwangau, Nesselwang, Oberstaufen and finally to Lindau.

In the largest moorland in central Europe, the Murnauer Moors, you'll discover untouched nature and spectacular scenery. At the same time, you can see fabulous cultural treasures such as Wieskirche in Steingaden or the royal palaces in Neuschwanstein.

Highlights of the Munich to Lake Constance tour at a glance:

  • From lake to lake through quaint Bavarian villages: See day-to-day traditions, and enjoy the wonderful local hospitality and delicious, hearty food that awaits you in the Bavarian villages. You will cycle past the Osterseen, the Riegsee to the Staffelsee in Murnau.

Itinerary

Welcome briefing and bike fitting. The capital city of Bavaria is awaiting you and invites you to visit its many attractions (English Garden, Town Hall, Hofbräuhaus,…)

Today’s tour starts with a ride through the Forstenrieder park until you get to Lake Starnberg. Then the bike path runs directly along the lakeside edge until you get to Seeshaupt. You will cycle along beautiful paths running through quaint, Bavarian villages and past the Osterseen lakes, lake Riegsee and then finally to Murnau am Staffelsee.

The third day on the bike will at first take you through the nature reserve Murnauer Moos (the largest marshland in Central Europe) and the “Altenauer Moor”. After the impressions of this pristine nature, you will get to know the essence of Bavarian Rococo – the Wieskirche church. However, the highlights of the day are the royal castles of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau.

From the former site of Bavarian majesty, you will cycle further along Lake Forggensee to Hopfen am See. This area impresses with its seven major and numerous other smaller lakes. You will continue your tour through fields and meadows and get a stunning view of the Allgäu Alps, Mount Zugspitze and the Tannheimer mountains until you reach Nesselwang.

At the beginning of today’s stage, the route is a little bit hilly. However, the beautiful Alpine panorama makes up for the little effort you have to make. You will pass Lake Rottachsee and relax when cycling downhill to Immenstadt (nice town with good restaurants) and continue along Lake Großer Alpensee until you reach today’s destination, the spa town of Oberstaufen.

On your last day of cycling, you will cycle through typical Allgäu landscape with scattered farms and villages to the beautiful Lake Constance (or in German, Bodensee). After arriving at the lakeside of the pretty town of Lindau, we recommend a visit to the island, the Old Town Hall and the proud patrician houses with their impressive frescoes. Overnight stay in Lindau or in Nonnenhorn, approx. 8 km from Lindau.

Departure from Lindau or spend extra nights in the city or surrounding region.
