Bregenz is a young city that is always actively changing. There are numerous leisure opportunities on offer here for the young and young-at-heart generation in particular, from cultural events to sporting events to educational events.
Joie de vivre and holiday feeling
The Hypo BeachBar Bregenz presents itself as a summer scene meeting point.
Anyone who has travelled in their life knows that wherever the journey goes, no matter how beautiful the city, the place or the landscape may be – a stay in a place, whether for professional or private pursuits, is perfect only when the local gastronomy plays ball as well.

It’s MY generation!
Whether young or old – Bregenz leaves nobody cold.“You won’t manage that alone, dad. We’d best go with you,” said my son and his girlfriend when they found out that I was going to write once more about Bregenz’s nightlife. And they are not wrong: the selection of clubs, cafés and meeting points for young and older in Bregenz is now so comprehensive that is suffices for at least two generations.
The fisherman’s footbridge is part of a special curiosity. Previously, fishing was not permitted from the quay wall. A remedy to this was produced with the construction of the fisherman’s footbridge in 1902. In 1923, it advanced to the airport of airline “Bodenseeflug Konstanz”. However, the company did not last long. Today, the fisherman’s footbridge is a bar with wellness moments.

In 1958, the cinema already had 853 seats, thus becoming the biggest cinema in western Austria. Despite innovative film technology, the Metro Cinema radiates its unmistakable charm of a traditional cinema to this day.

The nicest cycle path and footpath along Lake Constance.
The paved promenade made of fairfaced concrete is a popular meeting point for residents of Bregenz.
It leads from the port of Bregenz to the Lochau lido. Along the stretch there are several good bathing opportunities – including, since 2011, at a small “green” city beach near the new wooden bridge. The pipeline is ideal for romantic walks at all times of day and at any time of the year. In the summer it offers beautiful views of the sunset over Lake Constance.
In the gondola port, between the fisherman’s footbridge and the Festival House, there is the chance to hire electric boats, pedal boats and rowing boats at the Feurstein boat rental service. As your own captain, you have the opportunity to explore Lake Constance, or simply to let yourself be driven by the waves. Additionally: trips and tours for up to seven people with the “lake taxi”, a 175-hp-strong Bayliner motorboat.
