Arrival by car
Basel is located close to major European motorways running both north-south and east-west and is therefore easy to reach from all directions.
If you are using the Swiss motorway network, you will require a vignette, which is available to buy at all customs offices, post offices, petrol stations, garages, department of transportation offices and Basel Tourismus offices for CHF 40.
Once you have arrived in the city there are more than 4,000 parking spaces for you to use in Basel's car parks, whether in the city centre or at the St. Jakob-Park stadium. Furthermore, most hotels also have good parking facilities.
