About Uberlingen
A lively little city on the northern side of Lake Constance, Überlingen can trace its origins back to the Roman era — though the remains of Stone Age settlements have also been found nearby. Modern-day Überlingen grew as a popular spa town, and is still immensely popular with German visitors on restorative lakeside holidays. Our pick of the best places to stay in Überlingen is a laid-back, family-run hotel with its own spa and sauna, plus a plethora of outdoorsy activities.
Begin your explorations with a sunlit stroll along the Seepromenade, which offers dazzling lake views. Überlingen’s nearby old town is charming, with painted buildings, pretty churches — including the St. Nikolaus Münster — and a lively farmers’ market on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Within walking distance, the Stadtgarten is a favourite for picnics and beautiful botanicals, whilst boat trips, sailing excursions, kayaking and swimming also come highly recommended for travellers of all ages. Venture inland for hiking and cycling trails, a round of golf or a family outing to the Haustierhof Reutemühle farm, where peacocks and alpacas roam.
Cross the river to admire historic Konstanz, head along the shore to marvellous medieval Meersburg, and tour the acclaimed Zeppelin Museum at Friedrichshaften whilst you’re in town. Return to our Gurus’ choice of the best places to stay in Überlingen to savour excellent regional cuisine by the fire on cool evenings.
