Eiken is one of those communities that you quickly grow fond of. Nestled in the gentle green of the Fricktal and surrounded by expansive meadows, forests, and hills, the place combines rural tranquility with a pleasant dose of liveliness. Those who live here enjoy the best of both worlds: a nature-close, family-friendly environment and at the same time all important amenities right on site or within a short distance.
Around 2,500 people live here - enough to maintain an active village life, but small enough that everyone knows each other. Encounters at the bakery, a chat in front of the town hall, or communal celebrations throughout the year shape the togetherness. In Eiken, neighborhood is more than just a word - it is lived.
Especially for families, Eiken is an ideal place to live: kindergarten and primary school are located directly in the village, the school building is idyllically situated and surrounded by nature. Secondary schools as well as sports and leisure activities are easily accessible. Eiken also offers attractive prospects for professionals - not least due to its proximity to the Sisslerfeld economic zone, where well-known employers like Bachem are represented. At the same time, thanks to the train connection and proximity to the A3, one can quickly reach Basel, Zurich, or Aarau.
What truly characterizes Eiken is the feeling of reliability and groundedness - combined with openness to new things. The community grows gently, develops steadily without losing its identity. Here you find peace, space - and a home where you are happy to arrive.
