What to do and see in Basel, Canton of Basel: The Best Outdoor Activities

December 26, 2021 Janette Largent

Located on the Rhine River near the borders of France and Germany, Basel contains the country's highest concentration of museums. The culture-centric city, site of the world's most influential art market each June, is also home to the lovely Munster Cathedral, made of red sandstone with a multi-colored tile roof. Green spaces abound, including the popular zoological gardens in the city center. Switzerland's largest site of Roman ruins, Augusta Raurica, are an easy day trip to the east.

Zoo Basel

Reviewed By oldmathsy - Amsterdam, The Netherlands

We were pleasantly surprised by the zoo in Basel! It’s a short walk from the central station, but is also well-connected by tram. The main highlights were: - The penguin walk. (The kids went wild!) - The enclosed area with gorillas, orang-utans and chimpanzees. - The beautiful enclosure with giraffes. This was half-a-day very well spent.

Tierpark Lange Erlen

Reviewed By jhusak - Riehen, Switzerland

Tierpark Langen Erlen has gone through a process of modernization / refurbishment autumn 2018 and I paid it a visit just now the first time after the completion of work (probably before the end of 2018). Free entrance, strolling around and primarily being able to see local animals as well as having just some airtime whilst walking through the park ... it's a great recreational area for any time of the year. Best reachable by bike or public transport, the parking lot is way too small to go there by car. In summer, take some swimmsuit or transportable BBQ with you to enjoy more time next to the park at the river Wiese or in the woods of Lange Erlen. Beautiful leisure outdoor location.
