Titlis Rotair Villages

Hint

Intro

Engelberg-Titlis is the largest winter and summer holiday destination in central Switzerland. The attractive village with the famous monastery offers a wide variety of holiday activities for families, newcomers and those in the know. The many exciting options will make your stay an unforgettable mountain experience.

Description

Engelberg is located 25 km south of Lake Lucerne in a wide mountain valley at an altitude of around 1000 meters. At 3,239 meters, Titlis mountain with its glacier, and Hahnen mountain at 2,600 meters, are towering over the surrounding peaks. In the winter they make sure that there will be snow far into the spring season. One of the top 10 ski regions in Switzerland, Engelberg is also known for its diverse ski and freeride area. In the summer, on the other hand, it’s all about hiking, mountaineering, climbing, biking, and playing golf.

The town of Engelberg is appealing because of its distinct and rustic character. The Benedictine monastery was founded in 1120 and has a great impact on the life of the village, even today. Monks still live, work and teach there. The homes left over from the Belle Epoque are also witnesses of that time period. In combination with the pleasant Swiss flair, the special architecture lends the village its very own charm.

In Engelberg, families benefit from the national quality seal “Families welcome”, which features a special program just for the kids. The summer toboggan run and the adventure playground are just a couple of examples of what’s available for the youngsters.

Winter

Engelberg is not just a winter resort – it’s a winter paradise. The town offers such a variety of things to do that you will be tempted to extend your stay long enough to try everything. The two sides of the valley couldn’t be more different and they provide pure enjoyment to both athletes and those who like to take it slower.

Engelberg: the largest - and as the locals like to boast – probably also the most beautiful ski area in central Switzerland. Spread over an altitude of 2000 meters, there is room for snowboarding, skiing and sledding, a varied winter program to make your holiday exciting. The long, snowy winter begins as early as October and lasts into May. The 35 km of cross-country ski trails meandering through the lovely Engelberg area make cross-country skiing a fantastic experience!

Fresh wind in your hair, glistening snow and sunshine – this is what you expect from sledding fun in Engelberg. Try one – or all - of the three different sledding runs with a total length of 7 km. On Fridays and Saturdays between Christmas and early March the sledding runs are also open at night for a fast downhill run. If you prefer a more quite pace, explore the area around Engelberg on 53 km sign-posted winter hiking trails.

Summer

Faster than ever directly into the eternal ice with the “Titlis Rotair” gondola. Biking, a climbing course or a golf game – Engelberg has a lot to offer for active people.

The multifaceted family activities with the free summer program and the Alpine playground at Ristis make the children’s eyes light up. End the day with a lovely glass of wine or a tasty meal – even gourmets get their money’s worth in Engelberg.

Hiking with views far and wide, breathing in fresh mountain air and the scent of flowers make you feel as good as new and let your senses come alive: 500 km of hiking trails offer everything from leisurely to strenuous routes. There are pleasant places to stop and rest, countless grilling spots and mountain restaurants where you might like to linger.

Family

Families are more than welcome in Engelberg. As a family destination, it has the perfect infrastructure to make everyone feel comfortable.

In the Brunni area, the kids will certainly not be bored, considering the toboggan run, the large playground at Ristis, the Globi treasurer hunt, and the barefoot trail. On Trübsee, young and old follow in the footsteps of smugglers and muleteers and search for the hidden smuggled goods of Engelbert and his mule Schmuggli.

Staying just one night is enough for a family to benefit from the summer program with a variety of activities from Monday to Friday.

Conferences and congresses

Engelberg-Titlis is the largest winter and summer mountain destination in Central Switzerland and one of the most easily accessible Alpine tourist resorts in Switzerland. As well as incredible panoramic vistas, congress and seminar opportunities, the region offers a wide variety of incentives. Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie or a culture lover, you’re sure to have a great time in the monastery village! The MICE team at Engelberg-Titlis Tourism will organise every aspect of your event, for groups ranging from 10 to 1,000 people. The rent-a-village concept even allows you to hire the entire village or a mountain on an exclusive basis.
