Kaiseraugst - a local view

Claire's swiss colleague has given us these snippets on Kaiseraugst:

  • Our apartment is in a corner just below the Roman theatre area (see Augusta Rurica )and not far away from forest and Rhein river (good for hikes, nature and “Swimming” in the summer….)
  • “Landstrasse” is not in the old village center which means that there is quite a bit of traffic (in Swiss terms anyway)
  • It’s only a 5 min walk from the Kaiseraugst S-Train station (with Bus Stop also). It is very easy to go to Basel by public transportation (Train or Bus): There is one train (called “S-Bahn” line 1) every half an hour (12 minutes to Basel Main station) and at the main station you have the connection with the Tram.
  • Train tickets are probably a monthly season ticket to start with (64CHF for a monthly ticket which allows use of all public transportation in the greater Basel area “for free”; this inclused Buses, Trams, trains…).
