Around the Trübsee, individual hiking routes can be put together, for example from the Titlis middle station directly up to the Jochpass. Another way via Rossboden and along the Trübsee leads to the «Älplerseil».

With the Titlis Express, you travel from Engelberg to the Trübsee. From there, it goes down to the Trübsee, where six rowboats can be rented (for a maintenance fee). New for children, there is now also the Smuggler Path, a porter camp, and the adventure playground. Hikers climb directly up to the Jochpass. Other paths lead back to the west shore of the Trübsee and along the water to the «Älplerseil» (small cable car), which takes us swiftly down to the Untertrübsee alp. On footpaths, we finally reach the Engelberg train station again.
