Engstligenalp is a high alpine valley easily reached by cable car. As you ride up, you'll have a fantastic view of the 2nd highest waterfall in Switzerland at 600m tall. When you reach the top, you can wander the wide flat alpine valley surrounded by impressive peaks.
There is an easy obstacle-free trail around the valley, possible with strollers. It also has activities for kids to keep them motivated. Learn more about this trail
