Engelberg is a historical ski village that has seen over a hundred years of ski tourism, making it a cherished destination for skiers from across the globe. Nestled amidst the towering peaks of the Central Swiss Alps, Engelberg provides a one of a kind skiing experience.
Its longest continuous winter skiing season in Switzerland is a testament to its premium skiing conditions, allowing snow enthusiasts to delve into the snow from October to May.
The resort is easily accessible, being just a short 1 hour and 30-minute drive from Zurich airport. Once there, 2,000 acres of pisted terrain await, interconnected by 26 efficient lifts. Surrounded by the awe-inspiring 3,000m high peaks, including the Titlis glacier, the picturesque town of Engelberg unveils a skiing paradise that caters to all levels of skiers.
Beginners will find a friendly start on the slopes of Klostermatte, Gerschnialp, and Ristis, while the more seasoned skiers can challenge themselves on the sporty carving slopes and thrilling downhill runs.
Adding a touch of modernity to the traditional skiing experience are Engelberg’s unique attractions. The TITLIS Rotair, the world’s first revolving cable car, whisks you up to the summit station at 3020 meters in mere minutes, offering an all-encompassing view of the steep rock faces, blue sparkling glacier ice, and the magnificent Bernese Alps. Right next to the slopes’ start, the TITLIS Cliffwalk unveils Europe’s highest suspension bridge at 3041m above sea level, providing a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountain and glacier world.
Engelberg Ski Holidays offers more than just a skiing getaway; it presents a wholesome alpine experience where the old meets the new, where every turn on the slope tells a story, and where the majestic alpine scenery becomes a backdrop to your unforgettable skiing adventure.

The prime skiing season in Switzerland typically spans from December to late April, which is when the weather conditions are most favourable. Swiss ski resorts often commence operations as early as November, yet the number of open trails is contingent upon snowfall. It’s possible that some of the connecting trails to other resorts may not yet be accessible.
