Description
Engelberg used to be popular with the British back in the early 1900's, but now is Switzerlands best kept secret. Set in a stunning location at the end of an open sunny valley dominated by the impressive Mount Titlis. A large and friendly traditional village with guaranteed snow due to its glacier 2kms above the village. Good uncrowded skiing with excellent off piste skiing available.
