- Engelberg:
- We selected Engelberg (mapquet zoom in/out) because it is a high-altitude, snow-sure resort in central Switzerland, popular with both snowboarders and skiers. Little known and under-rated, this quiet resort has huge skiing among striking mountains and one of the world’s biggest vertical drops. From the top of the lift system to town has a vertical of over 2000 metres. In recent years, Engelberg has become something of an off-piste mecca! One of it's many highlights includes the Laub (Fallen Leaves) - one of the longest, continuous, steep offpiste descents in the Alps. There's also the Galtiberg - another awesome off-pister. This one drops through nearly 2,000m.
- We ran this trip early January 2007 as our college trip. This is an awesome resort with something for everyone, beginner, intermediate, advanced, insane off piste! Great hotel & mountain. It has soooooo much to offer!
- Engelberg, above the beautiful lakeside city of Luzern, is a great "Après Ski" town with numerous bars, restaurants and night clubs. It is at the end of an open sunny valley and dominated by the impressive 3,200m Mount Titlis. It is a large and friendly traditional village. The world's first revolving cable car provides a unique way to view the varied terrain as you travel to the guaranteed snow on the glacier 2kms above the village.
