About Liechtenstein's Mountain World

With its special sheet “Liechtenstein’s mountain world” featuring four stamps, Philately Liechtenstein is highlighting the country's alpine character. Four striking mountains represent the diversity of Liechtenstein's landscape from well known panoramic mountains to the high- est point in the Principality. The motifs are deliberately designed as simplified silhouettes.

The “Drei Schwestern” (2052m, face value CHF 1.00) are among the most famous mountain formations in Liechtenstein. They dominate the landscape in the north of the country and are a popular destination for hikers and nature lovers. The “Schönberg” (2104m, face value CHF 1.20) rises above the Rhine Valley and of- fers impressive views of the Alpine panorama.

It represents the gentler, yet still Alpine side of Liechtenstein's mountain world.

The “Rappenstein” (2221m, face value CHF 1.90) marks a transition to more challenging mountain regions. It is part of the country's alpine backbone and a destination for experienced mountaineers. The special sheet features Liechtenstein's highest mountain, the “Graus- pitz” (2599m, face value CHF 2.50). It symbolizes the alpine peak of the principality and stands for sporting challenges, nature experi- ences, and high alpine landscapes.
