Why this trip
Titlis is the mountain that children still point to weeks after the ride in the rotating gondola. Engelberg lies in central Switzerland, surrounded by rock faces, and in summer from June to September the paths are open and the meadows green. The Titlis railways lead to the glacier, where you can walk through blue ice in the glacier cave, a cool change with warm jackets. The Brunni railways take families to a sunny alp with a playground and a lake that is easy to walk around, just right for children of kindergarten age.
In the village itself stands a monastery whose cheese dairy and gardens can be explored on a short walk. The Hotel Engelberg «mein Trail Hotel» is one of the houses in the village geared to active guests. Lucerne, Andermatt and Grindelwald are within reach, but those travelling with children usually stay in the valley and go up the mountain for a day at a time. Because of the altitude, warm clothing and an early start in the morning are recommended.
Swiss Vibes answers questions on room, railways and daily rhythm in a video call.
