When Is the Best Time To Visit Liechtenstein?
The answer to the question of what is the best month to visit Liechtenstein depends on what you are interested in doing during your stay. Here you can see an overview of each month and its typical weather conditions.
Tourist Season in Liechtenstein
Liechtenstein is best visited in summer, from June to August, when both lowland and mountainous areas have the most pleasant weather. Warm days encourage sightseeing and hiking and biking. However, it is important to remember that it also rains heavily in summer and storms are common.
The spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) months, although slightly cooler than the summer months, are still a good time to travel to Liechtenstein. In spring, greening mountain slopes and flowering stretches of fields make hiking more enjoyable. Also in autumn, nature taking on colorful hues encourages active recreation.
The winter period, from November to March, is outside the main tourist season. On the other hand, in the higher parts of the mountains the skiing season continues then.

For countries with a large geographical spread, the most visited places were taken into account and the data were averaged. For selected countries, seasonal holidays were also taken into account, as long as they significantly affect the tourist traffic in this period.
