Bregenz: New nudist beach on Lake Constance is causing heated debates!

Bregenz, Österreich - The city of Bregenz plans to set up an official nudist beach on Lake Constance. A specially marked section on the other lake bank is to receive a nude bathing regulation after the area has been used by sun worshipers without textile for years. According to ZVW there was no significant problems with the nude bathing in this section, which is also not visible.

However, conservationists express concerns about an adjacent nature reserve. These areas are home to rare plant species, including the endangered Lake Constance Giss mein. Critics fear that an increased number of visitors could damage sensitive nature due to nude bath tourism. In order to counteract this, the city of Bregenz plans to differentiate the nude pool area with wooden posts and set up four signs. The district administration of Bregenz has already approved the project, while a objection period is currently underway until June 26th. After that, the city wants to comment in detail about the planned nudist beach.

The current concerns should be viewed in a larger context. FKK options are limited on Lake Constance. The official nudist beaches are mainly located in the Hörnle-Bad in Constance and in the nudist bath in Fußach, Austria. There are also tolerated nudist areas in the Kreßbronn lido. As nacktbaden.de , nudist options in the region are limited, with leisure grounds in Manzell and romantic places also accessible to nudist lovers. Nevertheless, the legal situation of many of these places is viewed critically.

In Baden-Württemberg, the nudist culture is widespread. In addition to the official beaches on Lake Constance, there are numerous quarry lakes and quiet places for nude bath guests. According to Stadtgui , FKK-supporters will get their money's worth at places such as the Gültlinger See in Altensteig or the silver lake in Freiburg. In the surrounding description, places such as the Kriegersee with a sandy beach in Baden-Söllingen or secluded gravel banks in Beutelsau and Burlafingen are particularly popular, while the Trippsee in Baden-Baden attracts mixed bathers, where nudist and textile-hustle.

It remains to be seen how the city of Bregenz will react to the concerns received after the opposition period. The development of the new nudist beach could not only attract local nude bathing enthusiasts, but also tourists from Switzerland, where nude bathing is prohibited in many areas. The planned infrastructure and the management of the new area will be decisive in order to take into account both the nature and recovery needs.
