Lake Constance (5/11)

Southern flair and the relaxed ambiance of the Mediterranean surrounds Europe's largest lake north of the Alps in the border triangle between Germany, Austria and Switzerland. With its magical locations and picturesque lake views, it attracts millions of visitors to its shores every year. Along with the mild climate, enchanting cultural landscape and romantic hamlets, Lake Constance also offers a fantastic natural environment: the shores and areas of conservation on the Swabian Sea provide secluded hideaways for many rare plants and animals. From spring through to autumn, from the Rhine delta in Austria, across the shores and islands of Lake Constance into Germany, up to the Rhine Falls in Switzerland, this film presents fascinating footage taken from three years spent observing life around Lake Constance.
