The Rhine Delta of Lake Constance is the river delta on the southeastern shore of Lake Constance, formed by the Rhine in what was once a lake. It lies largely in the Austrian state of Vorarlberg, with smaller areas in the Swiss canton of St. Gallen. The two peninsulas in the lake are called Rheinspitz and Rohrspitz.
