Hotel mein inselglück | Explore the Reichenau Island in Lake Constance | incl. dinner

Cycling, hiking and water sports island

Discover the idyllic island on foot or by bicycle from the hotel mein inselglück . In addition to the circular bike path, the many quiet side roads between vegetable gardens and vineyards are also suitable for relaxed cycling. And the shore cycle path around the Untersee is one of the most beautiful parts of the Lake Constance Cycle Path. Walkers and hikers enjoy the idyllic and flat island path. In many places there is direct access to the water, and children love collecting stones and watching the aquatic animals. Since the mountains only greet you from afar, the Hochwart, at 43 meters above sea level, is the highest point on the island, from where you can enjoy a magnificent view. The Reichenau is also perfect for water sports enthusiasts . Sailors appreciate the Untersee area; Those who navigate the water in a canoe, kayak or rowboat can safely circumnavigate the island along the coast (circumference about 12 kilometers). And in the Mediterranean-style lido, swimmers can have fun and cool off.

Discover Reichnau

Hundreds of poplars keep watch for you as you come to Monastery Island: the Reichenau Dam, erected in 1838, is the 1,300-meter-long gateway to the island. It is 4.5 kilometers long and 1.5 kilometers wide and has a total area of 4.3 square kilometers. The Reichenau is the largest of the three islands of Lake Constance (ahead of the islands of Lindau and Mainau). The dam is bordered on both sides by protected reed beds. And it's no mistake if you feel like you're already on vacation while driving to Hotel mein inselglück , once you've crossed the dam - the spicy scent of herbs and vegetables in your nose and the view of the lake that is in the distance. Nature favors the island of Reichenau: Lake Constance has a year-round temperature regulating effect and the foehn guarantees an above-average number of sunny days. This is ideal for vacationers and day-trippers - but especially for growing vegetables with up to three full-ground harvests a year. More information can be found on the Reichenau-Gemüse eG website .

Discover the region of Lake Constance

Three countries - one lake. You want to discover Lake Constance - in summer perhaps by boat. Konstanz, Mainau, Meersburg, Friedrichshafen, Lindau ... big names, baroque art, diverse nature. And Switzerland is so close that Stein am Rhein and the Rhine Falls at Schaffhausen are within comfortable excursion distance. Or how about a trip to the Appenzellerland and to St. Gallen with its abbey district as another UNESCO World Heritage Site ? The recreation park RAVENSBURGER Spieleland and the game and recreation park in Allensbach are not far away either, and those who want to go higher up can go to Bregenz and take the cable car to the Pfänder there. Those looking for a special experience can watch the impressive play on the lake stage of the Bregenzer Festspiele . The Lake Constance region and especially the island of Reichenau , which has such a favorable climate, are year-round vacation destinations. Landscapes and towns take on a very special touch in autumn and in the run-up to Christmas: the light becomes softer, visibility brighter, the smells from the kitchen and cellar more intense. And from the end of November, Constance is home to the most popular Christmas market on Lake Constance : it is nice to be able to return to the Hotel mein inselglück on the island of Reichenau after a walk and be amazed .
