    Enjoy an approximately 4.5-hour cycle route starting in Wasserburg. From there, start from the landing stage with the ship to Rorschach (price for combined ticket adult & bicycle = €16.10 (2018)). The route runs along the Lake Constance shore through Switzerland, Austria and Germany, past numerous dining and swimming opportunities. It ends again in Wasserburg.

    Author’s recommendation

    Take the Wasserburg-Rorschach route (not the other way round) by ship, so you don't have the pressure of having to catch the ship.
