Alpine Cheese Trail

On the original route (short individual excursions are also possible), you start at the monastery demonstration cheese dairy and walk on the gently ascending hiking trail to Untertrübsee. From the first stop at the Alp Untertrübsee with a panoramic view of the mountains, you cross over to the alpine cheese dairy Gerschnialp. Then follows the descent through the forest to Engelberg. Along the Engelberger Aa, the trail continues on easy paths to the alpine cheese dairy Stäfeli. In the middle of the impressive mountain scenery, there is a detour towards Surenenpass up to Blackenalp. Then it continues with a slight ascent to the alpine cheese dairy Surenen. Over the highest point of the hike, the Fürenalp, it goes downhill to Horbis, before the stony path over the Schletteren brings you to the sunny side of the valley. There await the two alps Hüetismatt and Langenboden. Then you walk back via Bränd, Spisboden, Heg and Bergli to Engelberg.

Please note that depending on the weather conditions (snow cover) in June not all alpine cheese dairies may be staffed and that from mid-October the alps are no longer looked after.
