Groundwater
Liechtenstein is in the fortunate position of having access to above-average water resources in relation to its size. Thus, about half of the drinking water consumption is covered with spring water from slope and mountain areas. The other half is supplemented with groundwater withdrawals from the Rhine gravels of the valley floor, which are highly dependent on Rhine infiltration and groundwater inflow from the Sargans basin in terms of quantity and quality.
Groundwater conditions
The groundwater conditions in the Principality of Liechtenstein are comprehensively presented in the Groundwater Report.
