ENGELBERG

The E-Bike Paradise

Ebiking in Switzerland

Engelberg has for a long time been the hot spot for freeride skiers and snowboarders in their search for high cliffs and big turns. In later years the ebiking scene in Engelberg has slowly established itself through the local community's growing passion and dedication. The endless hiking trail network offers everything from high alpine trails with stunning views to lower, loamy forest trails.

With over 900 years old history you'll get to experience the renowned authentic alp farming culture, passed on through generations, mixed with the upcoming ebiking and freeride vibe.

The descents are often characterised by dodging cows, stopping at cheese farms and cooling-off in one of the many alpine lakes. The riding consists of flowy yet partly technical trails on the higher altitudes and more smooth, yet challenging ones further down the valley.

Lakes, mountain biking and delicious cheese

Switzerland & lakes - a love story

If there's one thing the Swiss love, other than mountains, cheese and chocolate of course, it would be their lakes. And that for a valid reason. At the end of almost every trail we ride in Engelberg there is a lake waiting for you to cool down in.

A mountain bikers dream

The swiss secret

Thanks to the well developed trail network and shuttling opportunities around Engelberg we have found a door to world class ebiking trails which are still hidden from the larger masses. Some trails are starting to get names like "Little Finale" and "New La Thuile" which describes well the quality and variety of the trails.

Amazing atmosphere at Ski Lodge Engelberg

unique atmosphere

After a sweaty day in the trails we enjoy a well deserved après bike beer at Ski Lodge together with all the locals, sharing stories in an atmosphere like nowhere else. Ski Lodge Engelberg is often called the "home away from home" for some of the best mountain athletes in the world.

TRIP ENQUIRY

Wednesday

Arrival in Zurich where a LeRipp representative will pick you up for the transfer to Ski Lodge Engelberg. After check, the guide will go through the weekend's plans before dinner is served in the hotel's restaurant. According to the word on the street the best restaurant in town.

Thursday

Explore the Engelberg valley. We start with a few warm up runs in the bike park on the Titlis side in classic alpine terrain with a long and dreamy descent back to town. After lunch we head over to Brunni, the sunny side, where we enjoy the views of the characteristic peaks of Hahnen and Spannort while pedalling up to Brunni Hütte. We grab a quick coffee on the sunny terrace before heading down the locally famous single track Walenpfad all the way down to Wolfenschiessen. From here we take the train back to a well deserved après bike at Ski Lodge.

Friday & Saturday

After a steady breakfast, bike check and tuning we head out for our first trail. During these days we normally head down the valley from Engelberg covering the areas around the Lac Lucerne, Beckenreid and Sarnen. For the braves ones, each day is ended with a dip in a lake followed by a well-earned après bike in the Ski Lodge garden, topped off with a filling and delicious 3-course dinner.

Sunday

Flexible day. Depending on your departure time there is the opportunity to go for half a day riding or simply relax at the lodge and explore the town of Engelberg.

TRIP ENQUIRY

Founded in 2008 by two ski loving Swedes, the Ski Lodge Engelberg has become the natural habitat for adventure seekers from all over the world. The Lodge offers comfortable and spacious rooms, a jacuzzi and a sauna after a long day ripping up trails as well as a lively bar and restaurant with the best food in town (according to the local rumour). Ski Lodge Engelberg is as much the natural water hole for the locals of Engelberg just as it is for world famous action sport athletes.

TRIP ENQUIRY

In order to enjoy Engelberg's true treasures we recommend being an advanced mountain biker who is comfortable in steep and technical terrain (this does not apply to our MTB Skills Camps). The technical sections however, are usually not too long and are mixed with flowy and less technical terrain.

In the areas around the Engelberg valley we are getting most help uphill from lifts and shuttles or e-bikes. However, in order to maximize the fun we will aim to pedal and push shorter sections for up to 30 minutes per trail for our standard enduro trips.

Skill Level Recommended:

Intermediate

You have ridden a enduro and/or downhill mountain bike at least 10 times and master root sections and rock gardens as long as it's not too steep. You still handle the steeper trails while they are not too technical.

Fitness Level Recommended:

The Happy Amateur

You can pedal your bike uphill at least 30 minutes per day and climb 150m during several consecutive days. Downhill you can ride 1500 vertical meters per day before the notorious cramp makes an entrance. You exercise on average at least once per week.
