Public Transport

Arrival Engstligenalp

From the bus station to the waterfall: Only 18 minutes travel time separate the two AFA stations «Post» in the village center and «Unter dem Birg». At the foot of the steep rock faces, mountain lovers then take the cable car to the high plateau.

Parking

Parking is available at the Unter dem Birg valley station.

Directions

Start at the Unter dem Birg valley station. From here, follow the path toward Engstligenalp along the roaring waterfalls that plunge around 600 meters into the depths. The trail quickly becomes steep, climbing in switchbacks over narrow, sometimes stair-like sections. In the upper part, the terrain levels out. Crossing alpine meadows, you reach Engstligenalp at around 2,000 meters.

Safety Instructions

The more extreme the conditions, the more important the equipment. Longer routes in the mountains require, for example, weatherproof clothing and a small running backpack with food.

Emergency blanket

Mobile phone

Wind-/ rain jacket

Trail running shoes

Nice to have:

Trail running backpack

Tips

Once at the top, the reward awaits – a refreshing drink at the Berghotel Engstligenalp, or perhaps even a spot on the leaderboard.
