Unterer Rheinweg Promenade

Highlight • Trail

The Lower Rhine Trail leads to the Middle Rhine Bridge, where it is replaced by the Upper Rhine Trail - and vice versa, depending on where you come from.

In addition to the great view of the Rhine, the cathedral and both banks of the Rhine, the bridge itself is a beautiful piece of urban architecture.

Münsterplatz, Basel

Highlight • Historical Site

The Münsterplatz is one of the oldest squares in Basel and is located in front of the Basel Minster that gives it its name. The square is lined with many hundreds of years old former canons' houses, so that the medieval character has been preserved.

Basel Market Square

Highlight • Historical Site

When you enter the square, the first thing that catches your eye is the colorful city hall. But this place also plays an important role in the everyday life of the people of Basel: the market, which takes place every weekday, is a nice addition to the grocery stores in the city center. Gourmets will find many delicacies and specialties from the region, Switzerland and from all over the world here.

We walk past the large international exhibition center and reach the city center. The Rhine flows through and divides the city.

Thursday at 20 degrees. T-shirt weather 😎👚Mid-October👌. Today I redeemed my train voucher and took the train to Basel 🇨🇭.

My volunteer work took me to the Lörrach region, and a trip to Basel, which I hadn't been to before, seemed a natural choice. I have to say, I'm really impressed. The city is absolutely worth seeing and struck me as very quiet and clean.

Tip for all men:
Avoid Webergasse near the barracks. Unless you want to spend some francs on fun.
