The Old Rhine meanders along the border with Switzerland into Lake Constance. The nature landscape of the Old Rhein promises an enjoyable leisure program for everybody. You may have walks in the evening or a bike ride along the Rhein. There are also barbecue spots where you can spend your time.

Anglers beware! If you have your fishing equipment with you, there is the possibility to buy day tickets (from 6:00-22:00) for fishing on the old Rhein. With the day ticket you can fish in the whole area 45 (Rhein 3 – Alter Rhein/Hohenemser Kurve), from Altach to Lustenau.

The Walter zoo is guaranteed to delight visitors of all ages. Over 900 animals and 130 different species make a trip here a very special experience for the whole family!
