Route information

Located 25km South of Lucerne, the picturesque town of Engelberg almost doesn’t seem real.

The cobbled streets, beautiful swiss hotels and 900 year old Benedictine Monastery are surrounded by rolling green pastures, out of which rise the titanic glaciated mountain peaks. This valley is truly magical and with 500km of trails to choose from you will not be disappointed. We have combined runnable trails with big elevation to create a range of challenges to suit everyone’s running aspirations.

The 100K route takes runners on a truly unforgettable journey. The race climbs to the heights of Jochpass and Melchesee, passing stunning hanging lakes before descending into the valley to meet the 50K course towards Wolfenschiessen.

From there, the trail rises again to the breathtaking setting of Brunni, before joining the 25K runners in the Fürenalp Valley. Surrounded by dramatic peaks and sweeping alpine views, this course delivers challenge and beauty in equal measure.

Far more than a “hidden gem,” these routes are a chance to experience the very best of the Swiss Alps on foot.
