Lake Constance Pitch - Sleep Under the Apple Trees
A fruit farm in Deggenhausertal, in the district of Untersiggingen, run by the same family for four generations. You camp beneath old high-stem fruit trees laden with apples come autumn. Ponies graze nearby, and tomcat Timmy roams around the tents. In the evening, firewood burns at the campfire, and cocktails are available for self-service from the little farm shop bar. The sanitary facilities require a key to access, but they're spotless. For swimming, Schlosssee Salem is just a short distance away, and Lake Constance isn't far either.1
What Hinterland writes
„Heads up:
Sanitary facilities from now on only available on request with a key directly from us, so we can ensure cleanliness and hygiene going forward! Unfortunately, we've experienced too much misuse and the facilities were left in an unacceptable condition!“

Sights in the area1
Schlosssee Salem
A former gravel lake near Salem with a swimming spot, a short trip from the farm. The closer water for a quick dip on hot afternoons, away from the busy shores.
Pfahlbaumuseum Unteruhldingen
Reconstructed pile dwellings right on the shore of Lake Constance, the Stone Age up close. A place for a day with kids when swimming is off.
Stein am Rhein
A Swiss town where the Rhine leaves Lake Constance, known for the painted facades on its town-hall square. A day trip across the border.
Bodensee
The big water on the doorstep, easy to reach for a swim. Shoreline cycle paths run all the way around the lake, flat enough for long rides.
