The installation of this daring project was just another technical pioneering feat in Engelberg. In 1927, the first aerial cableway in the Alps started operating. Then in 1959, Engelberg was the first town to install parallel cable-cars, and in 1989 the first revolving cable-car. the Titlis-Rotair, was approved. During the five-minute ride, the gondolas turn 360° around their axis, giving all passengers the opportunity to marvel at the panorama of the Engelberg Valley, the deep abbysses and the crevasses of the Titlis Glacier.
The summit tour on the "Ice Flyer" glacier chairlift offers breathtaking views of the crevasses on the glacier at the top of the Titlis. This is followed by a visit to the glacier grotto and finally fun in the summer snow with all kinds of equipment for sliding on.
