CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING TRACKS

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 ski jump track is at the Nordic Center. The almost 2 km long track on the ski jump area near the Sportingpark offers a varied training track with its hilly terrain. Since 2018, there is an additional, demanding but varied section of the trail, the loop over the Bänzenrüti, which can also be bypassed. The trail is prepared for classic and skating. Changing and showering facilities are available in the Nordic Center next to the track.

For all night owls, the cross-country trail is illuminated every Tuesday and Thursday from 18.00-21.00 hours, weather permitting.

Author’s recommendation

The restaurant in the Nordic Center offers a pleasant opportunity to defrost clammy feet.
