Lake Constance links three countries, a mild climate and a sense of space. No wonder some of the best-known health houses have settled here and nearby. Here you find out which houses there are, how to get there and what makes the region so pleasant for a break.
- On Lake Constance and within about an hour you find Mayr cures, fasting and check-ups.
- Germany, Austria and Switzerland are close together.
- Getting there works well by train, car or via Zurich airport.
Why Lake Constance
The water, the Alps on the horizon and a comparatively mild climate make Lake Constance a region where it is easy to find calm. Walks along the shore, cycle paths around the lake and short trips, for example to Mainau island or Lindau, go well with a cure.
What you find here
Right on the lake, the Buff Medical Resort in Konstanz combines a clinic and a hotel. Überlingen is home to Buchinger Wilhelmi, one of the best-known fasting clinics. And within about an hour the Appenzell region and the Allgäu add Mayr cures, fasting and Schroth.
- Mayr cure and check-up with a clinic: Konstanz
- Mayr cure and fasting in the mountains: Appenzell region
- Schroth, alkaline fasting and detox: Allgäu
Doctor's consultation in the morning, lakeshore in the afternoon: on Lake Constance both are close together.
Getting there
Konstanz is easy to reach by train, from Switzerland often via Zurich. Zurich airport is about an hour away, the smaller Friedrichshafen airport on the northern shore. By car there are good connections from Stuttgart, Munich and Zurich.
When the trip is worth it
Spring and autumn are calm and pleasant, summer is lively. In winter the lake is quieter, and you often have the houses to yourself. For a cure every season works, because the daily routine in the house sets the rhythm.
