More than just work: a place to linger and to network
A good workplace is not the sole prerequisite for productive and creative working. Campus Klybeck also accommodates on-site leisure facilities, such as the padel hall, and catering outlets like the QIOSK on Klybeckplatz, which opens every day to serve up culinary delights from across the world. The nearby Rhine waterfront and various recreational areas, e.g. the Lange Erlen nature park and Horburgpark, offer ideal lunchtime jogging routes. Those who prefer to go shopping during their breaks will enjoy visiting the various outlets within walking distance in the neighbouring districts. The Matthäus quarter is a great place to go for a relaxing after-work drink. Also within easy reach is Basel city centre, which can serve as an uncomplicated meeting point for lunch dates with colleagues from all sectors and disciplines.
Here you can discover the Campus Klybeck players’ favourite spots.

Horburgpark
Although a walk in Horburgpark is not a walk in the woods and a picnic is not a forest bath – it still feels really good! A visit to the park releases the happiness hormones endorphins and serotonin, which reduce stress and clear your thoughts. So, off to the park!
Makerspace
The Starship Factory is a paradise for creative minds and makers – right in the centre of campus!
