E-bike hire

Switzerland's popular e-bikes or pedelecs have a bit of extra va-va-voom. These electrically-assisted bikes can be rented at the rail station (from a kiosk tucked between the post office and the entrance) and are a nippy way to get around town or explore more of the region's lush countryside, including the historic town of Liestal. Batteries last for about 60km before needing to be recharged. Many organised e-bike tours are also available.
