Liechtenstein
About My Trip to Liechtenstein
Liechtenstein was an easy and memorable side trip from Switzerland, and using the Swiss Travel Pass made the transportation simple. To get there, I took the train to Sargans Station, then transferred to Bus 11 toward Feldkirch and rode into Vaduz. The trip felt seamless because the bus crossed into Liechtenstein without a passport-control stop, making it an easy addition to a Switzerland itinerary.
Once in Vaduz, I spent about five hours exploring the city and found that was enough time to see the main sights without feeling rushed. My route included the central area, St. Florin Cathedral, the Liechtenstein National Museum area, the uphill walk to the Red House and Vaduz Castle, and the Old Rhine Bridge.
One thing that made the visit more memorable was walking back from Liechtenstein to Switzerland after sightseeing. That gave the trip a fun border-crossing element in addition to the sightseeing in the capital.
For me, Liechtenstein worked best as a practical, self-guided day trip rather than a destination that needed multiple days. It is a great option for travelers who want to add a new country to their trip without much extra effort.

Vaduz, Liechtenstein, is a very easy place to visit on a short trip, especially if you are already traveling in nearby Switzerland. During my August 2022 visit, I spent about five hours in Vaduz and found that was enough time to see the city’s main sights without feeling rushed.
My route included the central area, the uphill walk to the Red House and Vaduz Castle, the Liechtenstein National Museum area, St. Florin Cathedral, and the Old Rhine Bridge. Because Vaduz is so compact, it works well as a day trip from Switzerland rather than a destination that requires multiple days.
This page walks through what I saw, how I got there, and why I think a short visit is enough for most travelers. If you are wondering how long to spend in Vaduz, Liechtenstein, my answer is that a half day to one day is plenty for the highlights.
Liechtenstein is an easy day trip from Switzerland, and the Swiss Travel Pass makes the transportation straightforward. In this guide, I walk through the exact route I used to reach Vaduz: take the train to Sargans Station, then transfer to Bus 11 toward Feldkirch and ride into Liechtenstein.
I also share what to expect at the bus terminal, what the ride is like, and how to track your stop using the onboard monitor. Since the bus crosses the border without a passport-control stop, the trip feels seamless, and you can exit at a central Vaduz stop like Städtle to start exploring on foot.
If you’re wondering whether the pass works in Liechtenstein, this page gives a clear, practical answer. It’s a simple way to add a new country to your Switzerland itinerary without needing a guided tour.
For those staying near the border, walking is a great way to experience the ease of travel between Switzerland and Liechtenstein.

The walk starts at Sevelen Station in Switzerland. From there, you can follow Rheinstrasse Street all the way to the Old Rhine Bridge. Crossing the bridge marks your arrival in Liechtenstein. The walk itself is fairly easy and takes about an hour, making it a manageable activity for most people.
