Liechtenstein is tiny. The country is about 25 km from north to south and 12 km at its widest. You can drive the length of it in half an hour. Getting around is not complicated.
By bus
LIEmobil operates 25 bus lines covering every municipality, with extensions into Switzerland and Austria. Services are reliable and well-signposted. A single journey costs CHF 2.40 (within one zone); a day pass is CHF 7.20. Buses run frequently on the main north–south corridor along the Rhine valley floor, less often up into the mountains.
Overnight guests at participating hotels receive the Welcome Card, which includes unlimited free bus travel within Liechtenstein plus discounts on various attractions.
By bicycle
The flat western strip along the Rhine valley is excellent cycling territory, with dedicated bike lanes along most roads. The Liechtenstein Rhine Valley Trail runs the full length of the country and connects with cycling routes in Switzerland and Austria. Bike rental is available in Vaduz. E-bikes are popular for those wanting to tackle the eastern mountain roads without suffering too much.
By car
Parking in Vaduz is limited and mostly paid. For the valley towns, a bike or bus is more practical. A car is useful for reaching Triesenberg and Malbun, which are up steep mountain roads with less frequent bus service.
On foot
The 75-kilometre Liechtenstein Trail runs from Balzers in the south to Schaanwald at the Austrian border, passing through all eleven communes. It takes three to five days to walk in full. Shorter day hikes are well marked throughout the eastern hills and around Malbun.
