Liechtenstein travel guide and tourism: Touristic Environment

By Alex Lawrence

Liechtenstein travel guide and tourism. Touristic Environment. A pipsqueak of a country, Liechtenstein snuggles between Switzerland and Austria, among mountain ranges that rise steep and rugged above the Rhine. Besides the sheer novelty value of visiting one of the world's tiniest and richest countries, Liechtenstein is pure fairy-tale stuff a mountain principality governed by an iron-willed monarch, embedded deep in the Alps and crowned by turreted castles. Only 25km long by 12km wide (at its broadest point), Liechtenstein doesn't have an international airport, and access from Switzerland or Austria is by local bus. The western most-populated side of the country is in the Rhine Valley and relatively flat; the east is mountainous. Outdoor enthusiasts are in their element here, with a remarkable number of trails to hike and slopes to ski given the country's size. Strike out into the Alpine wilderness beyond Vaduz and, suddenly, this landlocked sliver of a micronation no longer seems quite so small.
