    Planning a trip May 26-29. We want to take the kids to Alpamare. Also thinking about Mainau Island. What other things are there to see/do? What are some cities to look into for lodging that would be a happy medium between the two places?

    Hi Lorib and welcome to MySwissAlps!

    The 2 main towns between these destinations are Zurich and Winterthur, there are many other smaller villages along the way you could perhaps stay if you want. We have a list of recommend accommodation for Zurich here.

    For Winterthur you can search here for hotel options.

    I’m not familiar with either area unfortunately, they are fairly unique attractions for Switzerland and Germany – don’t get many questions on them! 🙂 Both are on or near a very nice lake with Lake Zurich and the Bodensee. You can take a cruise on Lake Zurich which is certainly popular, but I haven’t any experience on the Bodensee except crossing it by ferry.
