Hagnau on Lake Constance: Lakeshore, Winegrowing and Trails

When looking for a hotel in Hagnau on Lake Constance, it helps to consider the activities you have planned. The Ufer-Park is right on the lake and invites you to relax and enjoy yourself. Other options include the natural beach swimming area, guided walks focusing on local history and winegrowing, as well as hikes and bike tours. Consider whether you mainly want to spend time by the lake, take a themed tour of the village or get active in the countryside during your stay.

By the lake: Ufer-Park and natural beach swimming area

The Hagnau natural beach swimming area offers children a water play area with water fountains, climbing features and a swing. There is also a diving platform in the lake. Changing rooms, sanitary facilities and showers are also available. This means the natural beach swimming area offers different options from the Ufer-Park, which invites visitors to relax and enjoy themselves. Facility details may change; check the latest information before your visit.

Walks exploring local history and winegrowing

A guided walk offered regularly takes visitors through Hagnau, including to a distillery and a fishery; along the way, anecdotes from Hagnau’s history are shared. Another guided tour focuses on historical traces of winegrowing. Several times a month, this includes a tour of a historic wooden wine-barrel cellar and a tasting of a Hagnau wine. The focus differs: the walk centers on stops in the village and historical anecdotes, while the wine tours focus on the history of winegrowing, the cellar and wine. Check the dates in advance if you would like to include a guided tour in your stay.

Hiking and cycling

Hikes through vineyards are available in Hagnau. Bike tours take you through the hilly Hagnau hinterland, as well as through woodland and meadows. The activities focus on different landscapes: vineyards are the main feature of the hikes, while the bike tours take in the hilly hinterland, woodland and meadows. When planning, you can decide whether you would rather hike on foot through vineyards or experience a variety of landscapes on bike tours. You can also plan a break at the Ufer-Park as a separate activity.

The Bodenseekreis as a wider regional setting

The Bodenseekreis stretches along almost the entire northern shore of Lake Constance in Baden-Württemberg. It reaches into the Upper Swabian Hills and, to the east, into the West Allgäu Hills. The district has 57.7 kilometers of Lake Constance shoreline. Its landscape is shaped by Lake Constance and the adjoining hills, with fruit orchards, vineyards, meadows and forests. These details describe the Bodenseekreis as the broader regional setting.

Cultural attractions in the Bodenseekreis

Cultural attractions in the Bodenseekreis include the Unteruhldingen Stilt House Museum, Germany’s oldest archaeological open-air museum. The visitor route includes the ARCHAEORAMA multimedia show, featuring a virtual dive to the stilt houses in Lake Constance. The site also includes the ENTDECKER PARCOURS, with a stilt-house cinema where experimental archaeologists introduce visitors to historical house-building techniques. Another theme is aviation history: the Dornier Museum Friedrichshafen houses nearly 400 exhibits across 6,000 square meters, including 14 original aircraft and a helicopter. The Bodenseekreis therefore offers a range of cultural attractions alongside Hagnau’s lakeside activities, guided tours and outdoor experiences.
