This stage starts directly at Engelberg station – and soon it is time to immerse yourself in a world full of nature, views, and authenticity.
Via Zingel and the idyllic Lutersee, you hike up to Eggendössli before the first Buiräbähnli (Rugisbalm) safely takes you down to Grafenort.
From here follows a comfortable section along the Engelberger Aa to the valley station of the Bielenbahn, which takes you directly up to the Alp Bielen.
The hiking trail now leads gently downhill via Schwand to Diegisbalm – and if you still have energy, you can make a short detour to the Oberalp. The Buiräbähnli there run according to your mood – you can decide whether to go there or back.
The last cable car section of this day takes you down to Wolfenschiessen. From here, a short walk along the Aa leads directly to the village center.
