Coast/Beach
Lucerne is 30 minutes drive or an hour by the local train and in summer the lake is great to swim in.
Golf
New 18 hole course in the most incredible setting, five minutes by car or accessible using the local bus. A valid handicap is required in order to play (April - October).
Skiing
Engelberg has two ski areas. The Brunni side (which can be seen from the apartment) is the sunny side and is frequented by families looking for a relaxing day out. If conditions are suitable there is wonderful off-piste down to the valley.
Titlis is the main area and more challenging, catering for the intermediate and advanced skier. The glacier on Titlis is at 3000m and guarantees a long, snow sure season. Heaven for skiers and boarders. We recommend hiring a guide for some serious off-piste.
Travel
Engelberg is easily accessible from either Zurich or Basel airports. Train transfer times are approximately 2 hours 15 minutes and by car 1 hour 30 minutes. If you are driving from the UK it is 9 hours from Calais. In winter, cars must be equipped with chains unless they have 4 wheel drive. The local council do a wonderful job of keeping the mountain road clear.
Distances
Stans is the nearest local town with large hypermarket (20 minutes drive). For more culture Lucerne is 30 minutes drive and has everything you would expect of a modern city, coupled with history and tradition.
Further details
Engelberg has two banks with cash machines, supermarkets, boutiques and excellent restaurants to suit all tastes (and budgets!)

Guest comments
We've had several wonderful holidays in this well appointed, modern apartment. It had everything to make our stay really comfortable. The views from the balcony were very enticing and Engelberg held so many opportunities for us to go walking at all levels. With its close proximity to the town and railway station, there was no need to hire a car, making it a very relaxing break. David and Marie Russell, Warwickshire.
It really was a home from home with everything you could need.The apartment was very comfortably furnished with terrific views from every aspect and was an ideal base for our holiday being close to the centre and railway but so quiet and peaceful. The attention to detail made for a really relaxing break. Chris and Sue Cheek.
