Park in Grunen
Right next door is Park in Grunen or Grun 80 that is a perfect place for running, skating and biking for the entire family around the parks man made lake. There is also a dinosaur park there too.
Wenkenhof - villa, gardens, and riding Hall
The Villa Wenkenhof is also a treat based over in Riehen, I have had a brunch in the ‘Riding Hall’ Reithalle at Wenkenhof and have also, visited a Christmas market there but haven’t visited in the summer yet. From what I saw last winter it was a great place to be.
Visit Rome - Augusta Raurica
Augusta Raurica is Basel very own Roman Museum and ruins. Sadly Romerfest is cancelled this year however, Augusta Raurica are still holding a series of workshops for old and young to enjoy. Make a roman Mosaic, blend intense fit for use in a Roman temple, test ride your hobby horse on their show jumping round, make Roman bread, pots and much more….

The sun is out and so are the buvette’s and terraces deck chairs, tables and umbrellas. Enjoy the sun in Basel but please protect your skin and wear sunscreen.

Zoo night may be cancelled however, Basel’s Zoo is staying open on Fridays in the summer months, until 20:00.
Listen to music outside
Merian Gardens are offering donations concerts during the summer months and there is a series of Jazz concerts at the Kunstmuseum on Sundays during the summer as well.
