🇦🇹 Rheindelta - Rheinmündung Bodensee

Very nice, comfortably driven/hiked, and extremely natural tour in the Rhine delta nature reserve with the two Rhine dams in Lake Constance. Circumnavigation of the Schleienlöcher by hike (about 3 km), rest by bike.

Get some of V (birds) through W (waterfowl and water strider) to Z (zeppelin) in front… read more

In what I consider to be the most beautiful area of Vorarlberg, I did a great photo tour on the trail of Caro. The loopholes all around by hike (3 km), then the two Rhine dams by bike. Stopped along the way for telephoto shots of the lush bird life. Pure nature!



At first there were hardly any waterfowl… read more

Comfortable tour to check on the waterfowl 🦆 and turtles 🐢 - unfortunately we only saw Caro's beautiful turtles 🐢 from a little further away. Due to the loss of a component, we drove twice along part of the route to search, but still couldn't find the missing part...



But it's always nice in the Rhine… read more

In warm weather (14-20°C) another photo tour in the Rhine delta. Ways "fart dry" and dusty.

In addition to some, unfortunately not too many, waterfowl 🦆🦢 also caught the first lizard 🦎

Telephoto shots up to 480 mm on KB.

At km 42.9 I turned around (hike) because it is a protected area.

Cozy photo tour in the always beautiful Rhine delta in Austria. Unfortunately not as many "photo-happy" birds as hoped, the situation was obviously not right (yet).

Telephoto shots (250mm at crop) with DSLR, quality as expected not as good as that from cell phone (which doesn't have a good telephoto for… read more

Going to Lake Constance today was a perfect decision: very nice weather 🌞 (without fog!) and beautiful nature.

The largest part of the tour is on raised dams in Lake Constance, with continuously perfect views of the water, a uniquely beautiful nature and an extensive bird life.

What more could you want… read more

Once again a simple excursion into the beautiful Rhine delta, with the mouths of the Old Rhine, New Rhine, Dornbirner Ache and Bregenzer Ache.

Great area with an enormous amount of water, nature and birds. Very, very worthwhile 👌

Almost no vertical meters, but what counts is the experience and not the… read more

On the trail of Carola and Markus 📷, thanks for the inspirations!

The area of the mouths of the Rhine and Dornbirner Ache with the Schleienloch bird paradise embedded in it is always beautiful and worthwhile. On the right bank of the Rhine I was practically in the middle of Lake Constance up to the front… read more

Exceptionally beautiful and interesting round in the almost completely flat Rhine delta in Austria. To the estuaries of the Old Rhine, New Rhine, Dornbirner Ache and Bregenzer Ache, the whole always largely along Lake Constance. And besides, you can see a lot of nature, and water anyway.

As I said, practically… read more

The weather wasn't as nice and warm as predicted, but still quite pleasant at 9-14°C with clear clouds, the wind wasn't a big problem.

The round is of course largely flat, as it is usually quite close to the lake.

The path from border A-D up to and including Lindau is technically not worth it for MTB… read more

First half of the tour flat along the Old Rhine and Rhine. Second half of the tour in the hilly Appenzell Vorderland.

An official bike trail at km 23.1 was completely sacked due to forest vehicles, pushing up about 300 m, difficult even on foot.

Another trail (protective forest trail) was signaled very… read more

Extraordinarily beautiful and relaxing pleasure tour 😎, once in a slightly different way:

➡ lake ↗ mountain ↘ lake ➡ (see altitude profile).

Ascent to the Pfänder not entirely without, but also not difficult. It was the first time I ever went to the Pfänder. The Pfänder as such is not worthwhile because… read more
