Selected alternatives for you
    The Steintäli is one of the BIG 5 of Engelberg, and thanks to its location, you can still find powder snow even days after snowfall.

    The descents around the "Steintäli" from the mountain station of the Jochstock Express partly lead almost to the Engstlensee. If you traverse or ascend westwards towards Wendenlücke, freeriders will find little-tracked terrain even days after snowfall.

    Notes

    • Difficult route finding for variants below Wendenlücke!
    • Descent from 2564m above sea level to 1890m above sea level
    • It is recommended to hire a mountain guide.

    Author’s recommendation

    Safe snow fun in the powder at the Snow & Safety Days.
