Destination guide

Altnau combines the Swiss lakeshore with Thurgau’s orchard landscape. The Altnauer Apfelweg makes apples the theme of an outing. Choose a walk suited to the season and combine it with time by the water.

What to explore

Lakeshore

Make room for a pause here. Watch the water and take in the atmosphere by the shore without deciding on the next stop just yet.

Leave room to wander. Bring an idea.

A day that could be yours

Let apples set the theme in Altnau. Choose a suitable Apfelweg walk for the season, weather and your companions. A pause by the water afterwards offers a change from the orchard landscape.

A little escape

Make Altnauer Apfelweg your main stop. Leave room for a pause afterwards and only then decide whether to explore further.

With more time to spare

If you wish, add Obstlandschaft to a visit to Altnauer Apfelweg. Check the connection between them and plan a longer break. These are flexible ideas, not a fixed circular route.

Plan your visit

Opening hours, admission, tours and timetables can change with the season. Check current details with the provider before visiting. If you need step-free access, suitable parking or other assistance, ask the destination directly.

Getting here

Choose your precise starting point and destination. Compare current train and bus connections with a road journey. Plan the final stage and your return too; boat services depend on the season.
