Plan your lake time
Destination guide

Nonnenhorn is shaped by wine-growing on the Bavarian lakeshore. The historic Torkel wine press recalls that tradition. Explore the area around Kapellenplatz and the vineyard landscape with time to notice the details.

What to explore

Three good reasons to visit.

01

Historischer Torkel

Look beyond the overall view. Shapes, façades and small details make this stop interesting. Check current visiting arrangements if you want to go inside.

02

Kapellenplatz

Let the streets and little views guide you. This stop rewards slowing down, pausing and giving the place time.

03

Vineyards

Cover less distance and notice more: plants, landscape and changing light. Use permitted paths and choose a walk that suits the weather and your companions.

Leave room to wander. Bring an idea.

A day that could be yours

A visit here lends itself to a focus on local flavours: discover traces of wine-growing, then leave time for a meal or drink. Ask locally about tours or tastings; the Torkel offers a good introduction to the theme.

A little escape

Make Historischer Torkel 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 Kapellenplatz to a visit to Historischer Torkel. 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.
