One of the most visited destinations in Switzerland, Engelberg and Titlis has a lot to offer you, from winter to summer, for families, couples, or independent travelers. Leaving Lucerne or Zurich, in the summer for example, you can enjoy lake and snow on the same day, enjoy a colorful landscape in the fall, or white mountains along the way in the winter.
What awaits you in the eternal snow of Titlis?
An excursion to Titlis is a unique experience for many reasons:
- The journey already passes through Lucerne, which is known for its beautiful location on Lake Lucerne and the Kappell Bridge.
- The village of Engekberg, at the foot of the Titlis, is picturesquely nestled amid high mountains and has a famous monastery that can be visited at certain times.
- The cable car ride over the Trübsee takes you from the enchanting surroundings to the spectacular world of mountains with eternal snow in no time at all.
- The Rotair cable car rotates 360 degrees on its way to the top of the mountain: you’re guaranteed a view from all sides and you can enjoy the whole trip without missing a thing.
- Many attractions await you at the summit: a circular walk in the middle of a glacier, a cliff walk at a dizzying height and a cable car that allows you to glide over snowfields.
- For those who want to try a bit of winter sport, there is the option of skiing or tobogganing.
- The summit restaurant serves typical Swiss dishes, including views of the surrounding mountain peaks
