| Divert from route 1 | | |
| | ||
 |  on June 13, 2005 |
The Swiss national system of signposted cycle routes cover the country in nine exetremely well though-out routes. A couple of years ago we followed much of the route from Andermatt to Geneva, which I would throughly recommend. It follows quite closely the route of the Rhone river. It is only a short diversion form the route to visit Liechenstein, and the youth hostel (see other tip) makes for a good stopover. The approach is quite hilly up from the Rhone, but well worth the push. |

| Any Soccer Fans From FC Vaduz? | | |
| | ||
 |  on January 22, 2004 |
If you're a soccer fan of FC Vaduz or Liechtenstein National Team, you may like to drop in to cheer the teams play their home games at Stadion Rheinpark, a 5,000 seater stadium with a small covered stand on each side of the pitch. There are no access to the open areas behind the goal posts. I was told that whenever the Liechtenstein National Team - consisting of amateur players - play in this stadium, approx. 3,500 of Liechtenstein soccer fans will be cheering them on. |

| We are the Champions! | | |

 |  on January 18, 2006 |
After failing to score a single goal in the 2002 World Cup campaign, tiny Liechtenstein surprised even themselves when they took on the might of Europe - well, okay, Luxembourg - and thrashed them 4-0 in a qualifying match for the 2006 competition. If they keep on improving at this rate, they should be a shoo-in for the finals in, say, 2066..... |

| Hiking in the Alps | | |
| | ||
 |  on June 18, 2007 |
Liechtenstein is a very fanatic sports-country. The government strongly supports sports and the country has an enormous amount of sporters and sport-clubs per capita. One of the most popular sports in the country is hiking. Hiking in the Alps is a fantastic way to get your physical training and to get a great view of the environment. Liechtenstein has over 400 kilometers of hiking paths all over the mountains. Most of them are well prepared and they are all clearly marked on several maps at the roadsides and on the tourist-map for hikers that is available at the tourist office. There are several huts so spend the night in in the Liechtensteiner Alps, although these are only opened in the summertime. And of course it is very easy to cross the borders to Austria and Switzerland. From many places the borders are only a few kilometers away. If you want to start your hike immediately with the high Alps, you can easily take a bus into the mountains and get out there to start your walk. |
