Freshtracks holiday
Check out the Ski Club’s holidays available in this resort
Engelberg may not have the extensive slope mileage of some larger resorts, but what it lacks in quantity, it more than makes up for in quality.
The lift-served off piste potential is vast, especially with the world renowned Laub freeride route, and its position right on the northern edge of the Alps means it frequently gets hammered during snowstorms. And, although the biggest attraction is the off piste, the snowsure pistes also serve up some great terrain for beginner or intermediate skiers. The resort is more of a small town and, as a result there, is good variety when it comes to accommodation. Its grand Victorian hotels have been joined by chalet-style buildings, concrete blocks and new apartment buildings right next to the gondola.
By far the best way to make the most of Engelberg’s incredible terrain is with Ski Club Freshtracks. There are seven off piste holidays heading out to the resort this winter, between January and March.

Pros and cons
- Fantastic snow record
- Epic off piste runs
- Huge vertical and long runs
- Most slopes above trees so skiers may feel exposed in bad weather
- Limited pistes for intermediates
- Accommodation mostly a bus ride from the main lifts
On the Slopes
The main ski area on the Titlis mountain is a paradise for off piste skiers. Classic descents including the Laub and Galtiberg consistently rank amongst the world’s top off piste runs, but a guide is highly recommended. There are also decent beginner facilities above Gerschinalp, but intermediates will find the extent of the pistes limited.
In the Resort
The resort is more of a town than a village so there are great amenities and the scenery is spectacular as it is surrounded by towering peaks. It is generally a relaxed and quiet resort – most people come here for the serious skiing and not the partying. Off the slopes there is a lot to do, including a well-maintained and popular network of cross country trails.
For Families
Although the beginner zones are located up the hill, they are good and sunny – ideal for younger children. As a quiet resort this is a good option and the Swiss ski school has a good reputation, meaning you can head off to explore the off piste whilst your children learn.
For Après
This is not a real après resort, but the Chalet bar at the base of the Titlis Express gondola has a popular happy hour and is the place to go once the lifts close. In town, a lot of the action is based in hotel bars, but Yucatan and the Hoheneck bar are both popular.

Switzerland
Updated 24/03
the first Nordstau of the season (in late March, would you believe it) is set to bring excellent conditions across particularly eastern reaches of the country through the middle of this week. Unsettled conditions moving in from the north plummet temperatures, with the freezing line taking a long walk off a short pier through this period; dropping from a daytime high above 2,000m on Wednesday to sea level overnight into Friday.
With this unsettled weather will come excellent snowfall; the west will see useful top ups of around 20cm falling on Wednesday afternoon and throughout Thursday, whereas the east will see bumper conditions with up to 2ft expected down at the same time. This will peak on Thursday, when c.50cm is expected down over higher ground.
Expect the avalanche forecast to climb over this period, as this new snow may well be sitting on a spring freeze-thaw crust and/or a very wet snowpack thanks to spring melt.
Things will return to a more spring-like norm as the weekend arrives, with spring freeze-thaw cycles in play and plenty of sun; a few lingering clouds will bring snowfall on Sunday and into the new week, but it remains a bit too far out to say exactly how much will fall, when, and where.
