Lake Constance

Upper Lake Constance, Lower Lake Constance, and a connecting section of the Rhine known as the Lake Rhine are the three bodies of water collectively referred to as Lake Constance on the Rhine at the northern foot of the Alps. These bodies of water are located in the Alpine Foreland's Lake Constance Basin, which is where the Rhine flows.

Lake Constance is a Zungenbecken, or tongue lake, that was created by the Rhine Glacier during the Ice Age. The Obersee and Untersee still made up a single lake following the end of the last glacial period, which occurred roughly 10,000 years ago. The Konstanzer Schwelle, a sill, emerged as a result of the High Rhine's downward erosion, which also progressively led the lake level to drop.

The largest and most beautiful lake in Germany, Bodensee also provides the ideal setting and weather for an unforgettable family vacation throughout the year. It offers hiking paths, river cruises, cable car rides, and mountain top excursions, and it laps the coastlines of the lovely cities of Meersburg, Lindau, Bregenz, and the Flower Island of Mainau.
