Basel swimming in the Rhine

In summer, the Kleinbasel banks of the Rhine are the place to be! You can put your clothes in a “Wickelfisch” swim bag and simply float down on the gentle current through the picturesque Old Town. 

Swimming in the Rhine is Basel’s most popular sport in summer. Do as the locals do, and experience an extra-special leisure activity. The colourful Wickelfisch – a swim bag in the shape of a fish which was invented in Basel – will keep your clothes dry.

Bernina Express

The most spectacular Alpine crossing: the Bernina Express connects language regions and cultures - in serpentine lines and without a cogwheel. The panoramic journeys through the UNESCO World Heritage Site are a delight.
