Engelberg Resort Attractions

Engelberg is a great choice if you want to do more besides skiing or boarding and, along with a huge choice of on-and-off the now alternative sports, the Sporting Park Engelberg (Engelbergerstrasse 11, +41 (0)41 639 60 00; sportingpark.ch) is home to an ice rink where you can try various types of curling, skate, or get kitted out in full ice hockey gear and enjoy a rare opportunity to give that game a go. To take part you need to sign up for one of the ‘friendly games’ for first timers and you’ll soon be chasing after the puck, shooting a spectacular goal and effortlessly moving backwards and forwards on the blades of your hockey skates – or at least that’s what the resort claims!

Shopping in Engelberg

Although, like most ski resorts, the majority of Engelberg’s shops concern either food retail or sports equipment sale and rental, the village does offer a dozen or so more outlets, about half of them souvenir shops of one kind or another, the majority on the main central Dorfstrasse shopping street.

Papeterie Alexander Höchli (Dorfstrasse 9; +41 (0)41 637 11 31; is a great souvenirs and book shop, or for toys head to Spielwaren Marlies (Dorfstrasse 11; +41 (0)41 637 24 74).
Souvenir shops include Arnold Amstutz (Dorfstrasse 7; +41 (0)41 637 13 82) and the Swiss Alp Shop (Dorfstrasse 11, +41 (0)41 637 00 04).
You can also get pictures themed on yesteryear at the Nostalgie Fotostudio Titlis )(+41 (0)41 638 00 82) in the base station of the Titlis cable car.
