Idyllic health resorts with relaxing thermal baths, impressive monasteries and picturesque castles. The large Lake Constance, a wide hilly landscape, lush pastures, colourful fields and quiet forests. Romantic ponds glistening in the sun and cosy bathing lakes with fresh water. A cycle path that runs through the middle of this wonderful scenery, where you can experience relaxation, nature and culture at the same time - welcome to the Bäderradweg.

The Bäderradweg recommended by the ADFC in the brochure "Discover Germany by bike" leads 250 kilometres from Überlingen on Lake Constance through Upper Swabia to Bad Wörishofen in the Allgäu region. Nine health resorts with a total of seven thermal baths are on the way and guarantee you pure well-being. In this collection we show you the five stages of the Bäderradweg.

You can easily get to the starting point in beautiful Überlingen by train, for example from Friedrichshafen or Basel. You can also reach the city on Lake Constance by boat. From Überlingen you cycle through a picturesque hilly landscape. On the way and in the stage towns, you will always have the opportunity to relax in the many spa and wellness facilities. Alternatively, you can simply refresh yourself in a Kneipp pool or swimming lake. The beautiful stage destinations all offer you enough overnight accommodations and you also have a wide choice of places to stop for refreshments along the Bäderradweg. In Bad Wörishofen, the destination of the tour, you can comfortably travel home by train after the final wellness programme. All around, a mix of enjoyment, relaxation and cycling awaits you on the Bäderradweg - an unforgettable cycle tour that you can enjoy with all your senses.
