There are not many guides and videos online that truly cover everything Engelberg has to offer. I made it my goal to take you from your arrival to activities, slopes, restaurants, bars to budget groceries, in-depth history and discounts. My brother and I shot this video at the end of January. You may be surprised but the low season is actually in January thus a great time to visit during the peak of winter.

The first place to visit is Intersport at the base of the Titlis mountain to pickup your skiing or snowboarding gear. They offer pretty good rental rates. Visit Titlis at early dawn by jumping on world's first revolving cable car since 1992, the Titlis Rotair. This cable car will take you to the peak of Titlis at a height of 3020 meters. Titlis is best known for having Europe's highest suspension bridge but also a beautiful turquoise-blue light caused by refracted sunlight. The temperature in the cave is a steady -2 degrees Celsius all year round.
Downtown Engelberg provides a cozy shopping street for great Swiss souvenirs, restaurants offering Swiss cuisine like Cheese Fondue and the Tal museum. At the end of the Engelberg village street (Dorfstrasse) you'll find the Engelberg Abbey. The abbey was founded by monks in 1120, while the town of Engelberg gradually built around it. Engelberg literally means Angel Mountain in English.
One of our favorite activities was rental a set of snowmobiles at SnowXPark at the mid-station on Titlis. For just 25 CHF or $23 US dollars for 10 minutes on a closed track, great for an afternoon match-off. Luckily, converting Swiss Francs to US dollars is easy, they are the exact same.
One of the better restaurants in Engelberg include Ende Der Welt restaurant, literally; The End of The World. Since this cozy restaurant is located at the end of a narrow street within a massive valley.
Another restaurant worth mentioning is Alpenclub, we must have had our best meal here. The house special; This incredible juicy steak covers with onions will set you back 52 CHF, $52 US dollars, but it will be the best juicy steak you'll ever eat.
The absolute best activity was Airboarding on Mount Brunni, this was a totally unexpected activity. Airboarding is basically sledding but on your stomach on an air mattress. Airboarding has its own dedicated track and is so much fun, especially while racing your friends. Renting an airboard will set you back 15 CHF, $15 US dollars.
In conclusion, Engelberg is an absolute fantastic winter sport destination if you want to avoid the busy jet set slopes of Austria and Germany. Engelberg offers something for everyone, from families to die-hard professional snowboarders. Do not forget to end every meal in Engelberg with a local Luz coffee which is thin coffee with fruit flavoured Brandy, got to love the Swiss! Now if you want to save yourself a ton of money, consider buying the official Swiss Travel Pass which cover free transit in Switzerland on trains, boats, buses and cable cars but also includes access to 420 museums in Switzerland. Starting at 240 CHF, $240 US dollars, it would be a mistake visiting Switzerland without it.
