The Hotel Bahnhof Giswil is nestled in the wonderful mountain landscape of Obwalden. The managers of the Hotel Bahnhof Giswil are passionate mountain bikers and advise guests and provide information about possible mountain bike adventures in the region.

It is the perfect hotel for people who love the outdoors and the mountains. In winter, as well as in summer, there are numerous activities to do in the area:

Ski touring, skiing, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and winter hikes can all be done in the cooler seasons.
