Travel Info
Date: 4-Dec-2026 International School Basel 2 Fleischbachstrasse Reinach, Basel-Landschaft 4153 Switzerland Travel Info I recommend you take the 11 tram line to Reinacherhof tram stop. If you are driving in a van or smaller vehicle, no problem. If you are bringing a large bus, or a zeppelin, please let me know. I hope it's a Zeppelin, as we have special Zeppelin port connected to our school, and I have never seen it in use.
