What's the walk about?

Welcome to Bregenz, the elegant capital of Vorarlberg, where the shimmering waters of Lake Constance lap against the foothills of the Alps. This walk reveals a city built like a stage, beginning at the world-famous Seebühne, the largest floating opera stage on earth, then tracing the lively harbour promenade with its modern lighthouse. We will discover the bold concrete art of the Kunsthaus before climbing into the atmospheric medieval Oberstadt, the old upper town crowned by St. Martin's Tower and guarded by ancient ramparts. Finally, we ascend by cable car to the Pfänder mountain, where a breathtaking panorama unfolds across the lake and three countries. It is a journey from water to summit, from grand spectacle to quiet history.
