"Uberlingen - A Pretty town on Lake Konstanz" Überlingen by aussirose


Überlingen Travel Guide: 13 reviews and 53 photos

We left Zurich early on the first day of our car trip. Today we were planning to take a look around Lake Konstanz and head on through the Black Forest to Lake Titisee and then up to Ettlingen to spend the night with vt friends Kathrin_E and tini58de.

We wanted to see Lake Konstanz.....but what part?

Birgit (bijo69) who joined us on our trip got out the map and thought it would be a good idea to cross the lake on the ferry and head up to the northern tip. Basically, we kind of closed our eyes, stuck a pen on the map and said...yep, let's check this place out :o)

So we ended up here in Uberlingen.

Well this was a very popular place and it seems that every tom, dick, harry and the dogs come here on the weekend to chill. We were driving on a Sunday.

I can see why this place is so popular. Uberlingen is a pretty little town right on the lake with quaint streets, a busy little market and cute restaurants.

Check out my travelogue below for the full story.

    I am glad you also explored the Bodensee / Lake Konstanz, that is mostly overseen by the ordinary tourists !

    All of Lake Konstanz is beautiful, but Überlingen especially. I used to go there a lot because my younger son’s school was nearby, But that was long before I joined VT, so I have no photos. My one VT page from Lake Konstanz is the one about Bregenz, Austria, at the south end of the lake.

    Finally a second Überlingen page. Unfortunately most visitors to the area focus on nothing but Meersburg and miss this pretty little town.
