Boat Trips on Lake Constance
By ship to your destination
A boat trip on western Lake Constance, especially around the picturesque island of Reichenau, offers a varied and comfortable way to experience the beauty of the Lake Constance region. Historical places, small harbors, reed-covered landscapes and views of the surrounding nature: green vegetable fields, orchards with the Alps in the background – that’s the Untersee region.
Schifffahrt Untersee und rhein (URh)
From April to mid-October, the ships of the Swiss Shipping Company Untersee and Rhein travel between Constance / Kreuzlingen (CH) and Schaffhausen (CH). Popular excursion destinations, such as Stein am Rhein, are reached and can be experienced.
A trip by ship on the western lake an the Rhine River is an experience, especially when the water level is high. Some of the bridges are quite low. In order to drive through the bridges, the roof of the cabin and the sun deck have to be lowered – then you have to duck your head and don’t get up again!
With the guest card Bodenseecard-West you will get a 20% discount on boat trips.
