Gusto Ride Middle (27th Mai)

The tour takes you to all sides of the Engelberg valley basin. First you go upstream along the Aawasser - up the mountain towards its source in the direction of the Surenenpass in the canton of Uri. But this tour doesn't go quite so high. At Stäfeli, where little homemade delicacies await you, you turn around again and ride back towards Engelberg on well-maintained trails. There you can stop at the Eienwäldli campsite for refreshments. The next ascent brings you to the sunny side of Engelberg, where you can stop for lunch at the Schwand Inn and enjoy a meal. Then it's a varied downhill run back to Engelberg to the Event Venue.

Gusto Ride Brunch (28th Mai)

The brunch tour leads leisurely upstream along the Aawasser - up the mountain towards its origin. You pedal towards the end of the Engelberg valley, past the golf course and up a little until you reach the Alpenrösli shortly after the border in the canton of Uri*. You've made it! Time to pause for a moment before heading back down. Up here you should pause for a moment, enjoy the peace and quiet and take a look at the imposing mountains with their streams that turn into waterfalls. From there, it's back to Engelberg on well-maintained trails, where a delicious brunch awaits you at the Hotel Engelberg "das Trail Hotel" - right in the centre of Engelberg.
