Getting Here

Riehen is located right next to Basel and is ideally connected to public transport. The modern trams (Line 6) and buses of the Basel transport network take you quickly to Riehen Dorf and the different districts of the municipality. The Ruftaxi is a special service that is free of charge for passengers with a TNW ticket. It brings passengers straight to their doorstep in Riehen from the Habermatten and Riehen Dorf tram stops on evenings as well as Sundays and public holidays.
