The Rhine Delta on Lake Constance forms an extensive alluvial landscape where the Alpine Rhine deposits its sediments. Flat shore zones and extensive reed belts characterize this European protected area at the mouth of the river into the lake.

Here, the calm waters of Lake Constance meet a chain of low islands and densely vegetated shorelines. The land constantly grows into the lake, forming ever new ramifications and changing the shoreline.
