From Radolfzell to Friedrichshafen

After a perfect first day, you separate on the second morning, full of energy. The first 20 km are not dedicated to the lake, but to the promontory between the Untersee and the Überlinger See, the Bodanrück. As the name suggests, this mountain range is perfect for mountain bikers. There is a relatively short uphill stretch and that's it. You cross the Bodanrück at its shallowest point, then descend through fields and meadows. And finally, you will get to see the magnificent lake again!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On Überlinger you pass Ludwigshafen and Sipplingen before taking a lunch break in Überlingen. The beautiful town with, it is said, the most beautiful promenade is ideal. Meersburg forms the transition from Überlinger See to Obersee, the largest part of Lake Constance. Unlike the Untersee, the places here are larger and more crowded, the lake suddenly becomes immense and the view of the Alps is visible. You notice that Lake Constance has an incredible number of faces!

Today's stage is the longest of the 60 km covered and you can feel it towards the end. The last 10 kilometers from Immenstaad to Friedrichshafen are like a midday slump, in which you lose a bit of motivation. But the wide paved roads allow you to move forward quickly and reach the Friedrichshafen sign quickly. Friedrichshafen is an unusual city for Lake Constance, not small and winding, it looks rather young, large and technically in the shape of a Zeppelin home. When you look at the lake and the mountains, you quickly forget about the technical side...
