Anyone up for a Sunday walk on the island of Reichenau?

Located in Lake Konstanz (aka Bodensee), the island is a UNESCO heritage site because of its three churches, which played an important religious and cultural role in the Middle Ages. The island is also known as vegetable island, as the monks who dwelled there grew all sorts of edible plants and were supposedly the first ones to write a poem about gardening.

Plan then is to follow the itinerary at Protected content , but we'll start from St George church.

Meeting point: St George church at 11:25

How to get to the meeting point: let's catch the
11:17 Reichenau Bahnhof - Reichenau St George church bus (Reichenau Bahnhof can be easily reached from Basel Bad Bahnhof and a Baden Wurttemberg ticket)
