The trip, in order

Follow the route day by day. Times and prices can change, so check official information before you travel.

Day 1

Schaan parish centre

Schaan

  1. 1

    Parish Church of St Laurentius

    St Laurentius is a useful anchor for exploring Schaan on foot. Its tall tower provides a strong visual marker in a municipality that otherwise feels more urban and commercial than many Liechtenstein villages. The church also reflects nineteenth-century confidence and population growth, while the surrounding centre gives a sense of everyday life in the country’s largest settlement. A visit pairs naturally with nearby civic spaces and routes north towards the Unterland.

Day 2

High village and chapel

Planken

  1. 1

    St Joseph Chapel

    St Joseph Chapel gives Planken a clear historic focal point and makes the municipality worth more than a quick viewpoint stop. The white church and steep roof sit within a compact hillside village, where short walks open broad views over the Rhine Valley and towards the Swiss mountains. Because Planken is small, the experience comes from the combination of chapel, village lanes and elevated setting rather than a long list of formal attractions.
