Well-prepared cross-country trails are at your disposal in Engelberg. If you tackle the tracks in the valley, you start and finish at the Sporting Park, where there are also cloakrooms with showers and a restaurant. As an option you can also park at the Brunni lifts and get into the valley tracks perfectly. You can reach the cross-country skiing area on Gerschnialp via the funicular and it is best to use the TITLIS Xpress car park.

The starting point of the cross-country trail is at the Nordic Center. The nearly 2 km long route on the ski jump area at Sportingpark offers a varied training route with undulating terrain. Since 2018, there has been an additional, challenging but varied section with a loop over the Bänzenrüti, which can also be bypassed. The trail is groomed for classic and skating styles. Changing and shower facilities are available in the Nordic Center next to the route.
For night owls, the trail is illuminated every Tuesday and Thursday from 6:00 to 9:00 pm, weather permitting.
Author’s recommendation
The restaurant in the Nordic Center offers a pleasant place to warm up cold feet.
