Switzerland’s largest plateau is a summer paradise for some, the perfect hiking area for others and simply a place of power for many. Engstligenalp is not only impressive because of the Engstligen Falls, where the water thunders and foams over 2 cascades 600 meters into the depths. The alpine feeling does not come too short on the meadows with freely grazing cows. Whether relaxing in the mountains or action on the plateau – nature experiences are guaranteed on Engstligenalp!
Plan now your team event or already the Christmas party on the Engstligenalp. Our recipe for experiences that connect: Impressive nature, a surprising social program and hearty culinary delights – whether on the plateau in summer or in our fondue igloos in winter.
Adorned with bells, around 500 cows parade up steep rocky paths to Engstligenalp in June, where they are allowed to spend the summer on the lush green summer pastures.
From mid-June to the end of August, the free-grazing cows characterize the Engstligenalp and give it a very special atmosphere.
Recreation in nature? In any case! The sound of cowbells, the fresh mountain climate and the breathtaking landscape offer the perfect opportunity to recharge your batteries and leave everyday life behind.

Trail running by no means only shapes the body. Once you’ve stood at the top and experienced the indescribable feeling of having pushed your limits, you’ll come back differently.
