The small country of Liechtenstein is packed with beautiful scenery, charming towns and villages and fascinating historic sites. Here’re the top three places you must see in Liechtenstein.

Gutenberg Castle (Burg Gutenberg): Perched on a scenic hilltop, this medieval castle is open to visitors as a museum with a rose garden and chapel. In summer, cultural events like plays and concerts are presented in the main courtyard.

Vaduz Cathedral (St. Florin Cathedral): You’ll be in awe at the sight of this neo-Gothic church with its grand stone staircase, Virgin Mary sculptures, and parish cemetery situated within a mountain-top forest.

Ruggeller Riet Nature Reserve: A 90-hectare nature reserve that’s filled with endangered flora and fauna, ponds, wet meadows, and lowland moors.

Although Liechtenstein’s cuisine is largely influenced by its neighboring countries, Austria and Switzerland, the country never fails to impress visitors with its own vibrant and robust culinary traditions.

Kasknopfle: This pasta-like meal is Liechtenstein’s national dish, made of tasty mini dumplings or noodles and served with melted cheese, caramelized onions, and apple puree.

Ribel (Rebl): Similar to polenta, this cornmeal-based treat is best enjoyed with coffee, milk, apple puree, or various fruit sauces and berry compotes.

Hafalaab: The broth of this hearty soup features wheat and cornmeal dumplings and is flavored with smoked bacon or ham.

Despite being located in the Alps, Liechtenstein has a temperate climate with wet winters and warm summers.

March to April: Spring is the busiest season in Liechtenstein when the most notable music and dance festivals take place. With its green hillsides and blooming fields, this is the ideal time to go hiking and mountain biking, or observe the grape harvests in Liechtenstein.

June to August: With clear sunny skies, the summer months are perfect for enjoying summer activities like swimming, visiting museums and art galleries, or strolling through the historic chapels. The popular Vaduz Film Festival is held in July so don’t miss it.

December to February: Travelers visit during these months to experience Liechtenstein’s scenic winters, ideal for skiing, snowboarding, and hiking expeditions through the Alps’ snow-covered valleys.

While getting prepared for a trip to Liechtenstein, don’t forget to pack these three essentials.

Sweater: Even if you visit Liechtenstein during the summer, bring a sweater along as it gets cool during the evenings in higher altitudes.

Energy Snacks: You might need an energy boost when you go hiking or trekking and don’t have easy access to food.

Waterproof Winter Boots: Liechtenstein often experiences rainfall during the winter months, so bring these waterproof boots in addition to regular footwear.
