Bregenz – Tranquil Days By The Lake

Bregenz, on the eastern shore of Lake Constance, has panoramic views of the Swiss and German Alps. It is one of Austria's most beautiful destinations. Take a walk along the lakefront promenade or take a cable car ride up Pfander Mountain for spectacular views of Lake Constance.

The mountain top is also a great spot for a picnic with breathtaking views or a stroll along a hiking trail. The opera and orchestras will bowl you over at the annual Bregenz festival (July-August), which will be performed on a floating lakeside platform. The city's architecture, history, and art legacy can be seen in museums and beautiful buildings throughout the city.
