Nature walk in Mettnau

Immerse yourself in the natural diversity of Mettnau and learn about the seasonal features of nature on Lake Constance under expert guidance. The nature walk on the Mettnau peninsula is a fascinating experience that takes place every second and fourth Tuesday from April to August from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. This one-hour guided tour focuses on the spa gardens and the accessible part of Mettnau, as the outermost tip of the peninsula, known as Mettnauspitze, is closed from April 15 to August 31 for bird protection reasons. During the walk, you can experience the unique flora and fauna of one of Germany's oldest protected areas up close.  The Mettnau peninsula, which extends about 3.5 kilometers into the Untersee, is home to an impressive variety of habitats. Shallow water zones with rare water birds, gravel banks and reed beds, riparian forests with orioles and black kites, and reed meadows with orchids and other botanical rarities.  Come along and be enchanted! Please wear waterproof footwear, preferably rubber boots!
