The mountain panorama is not all that’s heavenly in Engelberg. This is such a friendly place – with its easygoing village ambience and ancient Benedictine monastery, Engelberg is surrounded by stimulating natural beauty.

Aerial cableways and the railway convey visitors in all directions, while characterful restaurants, mountain refuges and hotels invite them to stay awhile. In summer as in winter, this place – deep in the heart of Central Switzerland – is characterised by warmth, friendliness and a sense of natural sincerity.

Engelberg offers the holidaymaker a wealth of leisure opportunities, and charming little shops leave no wish unmet. Rounding out life in this alpine village is a rich programme of culture and entertainment.
