Hiking trails
As a typical mountainous country, the Principality of Liechtenstein offers a wide variety of hiking opportunities. 215 km of valley hiking trails, 160 km of mountain hiking trails and 5 km of Alpine routes, all of which are well developed, marked and signposted, leave little to be desired despite the small size of the country.
