«In der vollkommenen Stille hört man die ganze Welt» Kurt Tucholsky
Der Engstlensee ist mehr als nur ein See. Vielen Meinschen verleiht die Kombination von Bergen und stillen Gewässern Karft und Energie.

Der Engstlensee ist der grösste Bergsee im Oberhasli. Er liegt 1'850 Meter über Meer und ist meistens ab Anfang/ Mitte Juni eisfrei. Die Enstlenalp ist der ideale Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen oder Biketouren. Auch Fischer und Ruhesuchende finden auf Engstlen ihren Platz.

Im rustikalen Berghotel laden 30 Zimmern zum Übernachten ein. Zu empfehlen ist auch die Rossbodenhütte, in der Gäste mit rustikalen und regionalen Gerichten verpflegt werden.

Im Winter eignet sich die Alp als Ausgangspunkt für Ski-, Splittboard- und Schneeschuhtouren.
