Full description

This day out combines high alpine scenery with Switzerland’s prettiest lakeside town. From Engelberg, a chain of cable cars ends with the Rotair, which turns slowly as it climbs to the Titlis glacier at about 3,000 m. Up top you can walk the Cliff Walk suspension bridge, visit the ice grotto and ride the Ice Flyer chairlift over the glacier.

In the afternoon you stop in Lucerne for a short guided walk to the Chapel Bridge, the Lion Monument and the old town, with free time before returning to Zurich. Mountain activities depend on the weather and the season.
