About Liechtenstein

Liechtenstein is a small Alpine principality squeezed between Switzerland and Austria along the Rhine. Vaduz holds the hilltop castle and a strong museum and wine scene, Malbun is the ski and family mountain village, and the Rhine valley trails and marked alpine paths cross vineyards and meadows. Summer is the best season for hiking and cycling the whole country; winter centers on skiing and quieter snow walks, while spring and autumn are short, cool and uncrowded.

It has more registered companies than citizens, thanks to its long-standing financial sector.
Vaduz castle is the prince's residence, and the country's alpine trails and ski areas start from its villages.
