Ski vacations Bregenz – Mountain sports and relaxation at Lake Constance!

Bregenz

Bregenz is the state's capital and the third biggest town in Vorarlberg. It is an important harbour and culture town directly at Lake Constance, which is an attractive destination on many levels. With around 30,000 inhabitants, it offers lots of cultural activities, e.g. on the "Culture mile" where art galleries, theatre stages and museums can be found close together. Cultural festivals for music, dance and play enjoy international attention annually, and marvellous buildings such as the state library or the Martin's Tower - one of the Bregenz's symbols - coin the town's face. The picturesque location directly at the lakefront as well as the proximity to smaller and larger ski areas also make this town a popular place for nature and winter sports fans. The next mountain experience awaits winter sports fans close by at the local mountain Pfänder, the most famous viewing point of the region. 240 Alpine peaks in three countries as well as a unique view over Lake Constance wait for you there. The nearly 1,100 m high mountain invites for long winter hikes, tobogganing and family-friendly ski and snowboard fun.

Lake Constance

For many, picturesque Lake Constance is the epitome of a perfect relaxing holiday. It is located in the foothills of the Alps and therefore close to enchanting mountain scenery, but the largest part of its shore is on Bavarian soil surrounded by gentle alpine pastures. At 536 km², Lake Constance is the largest lake in Germany in terms of surface area and is made up of two lakes and a connecting river: Obersee, Untersee and Seerhein. The entire Lake Constance region even extends across four countries: Germany, Austria and Switzerland border directly on the lake, as well as the Principality of Liechtenstein. One of the advantages of the holiday region around this beautiful body of water is its versatility. Attractive towns such as Bregenz, Constance, Lindau and Friedrichshafen invite you to visit them, several castles and fortresses are reminiscent of ancient times and a large number of museums, galleries and modern architecture appeal to culture vultures. The proximity to the surrounding mountains invites you to go skiing and snowboarding, winter hiking or tobogganing. The Lake Constance region offers an attractive destination for active holidaymakers all year round with its two different sporting worlds on the water and in the mountains.
