Theme hikes
Excitement, adventure and perhaps learning one or two things at the same time? This can be found on the theme trails around Engelberg. Go on a treasure hunt on Brunni or Trübsee or enjoy nature under your feet on the barefoot trail.

The mountain plants are exposed to extreme living conditions in the alpine mountain world. At higher altitudes, summer is very short and the plants have little time to bloom. On the newly created alpine flower educational routes at Gerschnialp and Trübsee, visitors learn about various alpine flower species and their living conditions in an uncomplicated way. Surrounded by an impressive alpine mountain and glacier world, hikers can inform themselves about the alpine flowers found here using yellow panels.
Author’s recommendation
On each flower panel, you will find a 9-digit number code. An information sheet explaining the meaning of the codes is available in the flyer "Code key".
