Current Travel Situation
Belgium to Liechtenstein: What You Need to Know
Liechtenstein is one of the world's smallest countries, a principality nestled between Switzerland and Austria. It is a Schengen member but not an EU member. Belgian tourists typically visit as a day trip from Zurich, Bregenz, or the Swiss Rhine Valley. Vaduz, the capital, offers museums, the Prince's castle, and spectacular mountain scenery. Liechtenstein uses the Swiss Franc and has deep ties with Switzerland.
How to Get There
The easiest access is by train from Zurich to Sargans or Buchs (Switzerland), then a short bus ride to Vaduz. Direct PostBus services connect several Swiss cities. No commercial airport in Liechtenstein: use Zurich (ZRH) or Friedrichshafen (FDH) in Germany.
Money & Banking
Liechtenstein uses the Swiss Franc (CHF). Prices are comparable to Switzerland, which is one of Europe's most expensive countries. Cards are widely accepted. The country is cash-friendly as well.
Practical Tips
Liechtenstein is tiny: you can walk across Vaduz in under 30 minutes. Stamp your passport at the Vaduz tourist office for a souvenir entry stamp (Liechtenstein has no official passport controls). The Liechtenstein National Museum and Kunstmuseum are worth visiting. Skiing is available at Malbun resort in winter.
