Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Meiringen à Engelberg

Get ready for a real Swiss adventure! This route starts in Meiringen, famous for its Reichenbach Falls (think Sherlock Holmes!) and delicious meringues. From there, you’ll head east into the heart of the Alps, weaving through lush valleys and climbing some serious hills—there’s over 4,000 meters of ascent, so bring your climbing legs!

You’ll ride about 63 kilometers on a mix of quiet backroads, tracks, and scenic paths—some sections are unpaved, so a gravel or mountain bike is your best bet. The route gives you jaw-dropping mountain views, and you’ll hit impressive heights (up to 2,120 meters). Pack a windbreaker!

Your destination, Engelberg, is a charming mountain resort known for its Benedictine monastery and top-notch skiing and hiking. Once you roll into town, reward yourself with a hearty Swiss meal and maybe even a cable car ride for a final view of those peaks. Challenging but absolutely epic!
