The route passes along 16 lakes and lives up to its name. The last stage runs from Buchs through the St. Gallen Rhine Valley to Rorschach. The efforts are rewarded with wonderful views and enlivened by flower-rich moors, bird paradises, and pilgrimage sites. In the Rhine Valley, the asphalt ribbons on the dam beckon and in the distance the river delta greets with the expanse of Lake Constance.
Author’s recommendation
The tour can wonderfully end at the picturesque Lake Constance – either with a refreshing swim in the lake or a well-deserved drink on the shore.
