Your journey starts in the canton of Thurgau at the Wellness Hotel Golf Panorama, in the midst of greenery - where else is the water so close and the mountains within reach? Surrounded by lush green hills and a wealth of cultural and natural treasures: from pile dwellings to medieval monasteries to the sea of blossoming apple trees - spring is therefore our absolute seasonal tip for this bike tour! How about a walk through the forest right next door or a round of golf? Enjoy the benefits of the spacious wellness area and indulge in culinary delights in the "LION D'OR" restaurant.

On the East Switzerland Wine Route, you will ride along the broad plain of the Thur. Past the vineyards of the Ottenberg via Bischofszell to just before St. Gallen. From here you continue on the Heart Route: "sönd wöllkömm" in Appenzell! This section leads through an intense piece of eastern Switzerland with strong views of Appenzellerland and the Alpstein backdrop. Challenging topography and varied scenery make this stage a versatile riding experience. At the foot of the Alpstein massif lies the village of Appenzell, also known as "Appezöll" in the local dialect. A stop is worthwhile: colourfully painted wooden houses with curved gables give the village a very special character. Only a 15-minute drive away is the Hotel Hof Weissbad: a place to relax, experience or simply be. Enjoy relaxing hours in the spa and a cosy evening accompanied by a fine 4-course selection menu. 

TIP: every Wednesday there are Appenzell specialities from the buffet accompanied by traditional Appenzell live music.

This stage leads along the Herzroute via Altstätten steadily uphill - but easily doable with the support of the e-bike - to the "St. Anton" vantage point. The ascent is rewarded with a magnificent view from Lake Constance over the Rhine Valley to the Vorarlberg Alps. Via Walzenhausen and Rheineck you reach the idyllic harbour town of Rorschach. The Kornhaus, visible from afar, embodies the importance of Rorschach as one of the most important grain trading towns in southern Germany in the 18th century. Today, the Kornhaus houses an exciting museum that documents the town's history with pile-dwelling models. The Hotel Bad Horn is a good 10 minutes away. Here, a wellness oasis directly on Lake Constance awaits you.

TIP: Jump into the lake directly from the wellness area and afterwards bubble in the whirlpool - or have an aperitif on the lake terrace, watch the seagulls circling high above the water and enjoy the ambience with a light sea breeze - almost like being at the North Sea!

Enjoy a wonderful ride along the Lake Constance cycle path past numerous Thurgau apple trees to Kreuzlingen. Especially in spring, this section is a real natural spectacle: the buzzing of bees and a beautiful sea of blossoms as far as the eye can see. Not to forget: the two picturesque harbour towns of Arbon and Romanshorn - both definitely worth a visit! From Kreuzlingen, the onward journey to Constance is recommended. Be sure to visit the Romanesque Constance Minster here with its different architectural styles. From Constance, the route takes you across meadows and forests back to the Golf Panorama wellness hotel, the last stop on your bike tour.
