Rustic mountain house in traditional Swiss style

Ten minutes' walk from the village center is Engelberg Youth Hostel, a cosy mountain lodge in traditional Swiss style. From there, you can hop straight onto your bike and explore the fascinating mountain landscape.

The region offers a variety of trails for every riding style. Depending on your preferences, you can choose from enjoyable e-bike tours, challenging cross-country day tours or enduro adventures. If you're out and about with the little ones in the family, the Engelberg Bike School offers the perfect introduction for children aged 3 to 14 with the Kids Bike League.

The reasonably priced hostel provides fun and relaxation after a strenuous day of biking. There is a playground for kids, as well as a table football table and a table tennis table. The spacious lounges, typical of youth hostels, invite you to linger and chat with like-minded people. With breakfast included in the price, you start your day full of energy and the balanced and sustainable three-course menu for dinner (excl.) replenishes your energy stores. Packed lunches can be ordered for refreshments along the way.
