This time I went to Mettnau for a quick after-work round.
I only had daylight on the way to the Mettnauspitze. But I had the peninsula all to myself and was able to enjoy nature in peace.

The Mettnauspitze is undoubtedly one of the outstanding natural sights on Lake Constance. It offers a habitat for rare birds (e.g. oriole and black kite) and rare species of orchids. The nature reserve can be entered between September and mid-April. The path leads along a narrow path to the top, from where you can enjoy a beautiful view of the …
