Below you the perfectly groomed slopes, above you the bright blue sky and in front of you the endless expanse: this is how the snow sports area of Engstligenalp presents itself. As a reward, the breathtaking view or a fine lunch in the restaurant in the mountain hotel beckons. On the slopes, ready, go!
The Engstligenalp-Adelboden snow sports area is located at 2000 meters above sea level. Thanks to the unique topography and altitude, the snow sports area is guaranteed snow from mid-December to the beginning of May and can score with natural snow. For skiers and snowboarders, Engstligenalp offers exclusive winter sports experiences right at the foot of the Wildstrubel with three ski lifts, two children’s lifts and a drag lift.
The mountain railroads in the Adelboden-Lenk ski region have a dynamic pricing model for ski tickets. Tickets can be booked directly in the webshop. The rule is: the earlier you book, the cheaper the prices. So get going, secure your ski passes as early as possible and enjoy skiing at 2000 m above sea level!
The “Kids Free” family offer applies in the Adelboden-Lenk ski region: every Saturday, for every 1 adult who buys a 1-day ski pass, a 4-hour or a 2-hour pass, a maximum of 2 adults can ski for free. 2 children between the ages of 6 and 15 ski for free. Only children accompanied by an adult ride for free (max. 2 kids aged 6-15).
Whether with their parents, godparents or grandparents, kids visiting Adelboden-Lenk on Saturday are invited by the ski region to get to know the many child-friendly slopes and fun offers.
When the full moon bathes the snow-capped peaks in silvery light and the silence of the night envelops the mountains, a very special winter experience begins on the Engstligenalp.

While some already have one foot in the pool, others are far from thinking about putting their skis and boards back in the basement. Because you can still ski on the Engstligenalp until May! Make tracks in the snow in spring-like weather and end the day with Kafi Luz, Schümli Pflümli or Fröschli at the aprèsski in the Bockbar – definitely a unique experience.

Had you actually only planned a leisurely excursion to the largest plateau in Switzerland, but suddenly you still feel like making a few turns on the slopes? No problem at all, because the Engstligenalp rental and test center is located right next to the mountain station. There you can rent skis, snowshoes and cross-country skis. Or did you forget to sharpen the edges, wax the skis or is the binding too loose? Simply bring your equipment to the rental and test center before you hit the slopes.

Did you know that the Engstligenalp is home to many marmots? Like clockwork, the little creatures wake up from their hibernation between April 18 and 22 and return to the surface. With a bit of luck, you might spot a marmot from the piste as it sleepily sticks its nose out of its burrow.
This makes it all the more worthwhile to take a trip to the spring snow at the end of April!
