ALPINE CHEESE TRAIL
Passing by seven different Alpine dairies, the Alpine Cheese Trail is an attractive hiking route through Engelberg’s varied natural landscape. At the farms, you will learn all there is to know about traditional Alpine cheeses and the hard lives of the Alpine farmers who graze their animals up in the mountains each summer.

After the monastery, past the cemetery, we cross the Ochsenmatt up to the boat to the Flühmatt, from where a wonderful view and the world's best Älplermagronen are waiting for us. Rockier downhill run into the valley.
Author’s recommendation
The monastery and the "Älplermagronen" in the restaurant Flühmatt.
