There is a hidden world between Lake Constance and the gentle mountains in the Hegau region

The “quieter side” is where artists and writers like Otto Dix and Hermann Hesse found inspiration. The Western Lake Constance region invites you to the islands, volcanoes and “premium” trails less traveled.

The "Year of Nature" 2019 is highlighted by the new NABU Lake Constance Center in the Wollmatinger Ried Nature Reserve, a natural oasis for birding, kayaking and research nestled between the city of Constance and UNESCO Island of Reichenau. The new center focuses on Lake Constance conservation efforts and the natural world with a rich program of nature excursions from Constance.
