Traveller notes on Vaduz in December
Other months in Vaduz
The Alpine region around Vaduz sees genuinely variable June weather — a warm 30°C valley day is just as plausible as a cool 15°C high, with afternoon thunderstorms a regular feature by late spring. Regulars' standard advice for this part of the Alps is layers for a mix of sun, rain, warm and cold, since a single trip can see all four.
