On foot or by train - that's the question!

The ascent to the Brunnihütte high above the central Swiss tourist resort of Engelberg is a tranquil and easy hike. Alternatively, you can take the cable car to Ristis and approach from there, or even then take the chairlift all the way to the Brunnihütte.
