The snow-covered Alps, a skiing paradise you can't miss!

1. Engelberg Titlis Engelberg Titlis, with an altitude of 3238 meters, is located in Engelberg south of Lake Lucerne. The millennium-old glacier makes it one of the most famous peaks in the Alps. The world's first 360-degree rotating cable car and the highest suspension bridge in Europe make it famous. The charming town of Engelberg at the foot of the mountain is the largest winter sports resort in the Lucerne area. In addition to skiing, you can also enjoy romantic carriage rides, relaxed snowshoe walks, and taste delicious Swiss cheese fondue in charming Alpine huts. Experience Europe's only electric snowmobile, and then rejuvenate in the hot spring bath. By train, it only takes 47 minutes to travel from Engelberg to Lucerne, the most beautiful city in central Switzerland, and immerse yourself in a rich variety of cultural and musical activities. You can also visit numerous museums, shop in the charming old town, and stroll on the famous Chapel Bridge. 2. Jungfrau Ski Resort The Jungfrau, known as the 'Queen of the Alps', with an altitude of 4158 meters, is located 18 kilometers southeast of the tourist resort of Interlaken and is one of the highest peaks in the Alps.

The top of the Jungfrau is equipped with the 'Ice Palace', 'Top of Europe' glacier restaurant, and even a cinema. The Sphinx viewing platform offers a panoramic view of the longest Great Aletsch Glacier in Europe. Enjoy the fun of hiking on the snow-covered glacier.

The towering mountains are covered with snow all year round, making Zermatt, located in the valley at an altitude of 1620 meters, seem like a fairyland. Zermatt is also a popular four-season ski resort in Switzerland, with an average annual snowfall of 762 cm. The 360-kilometer ski trail is distributed between 1620 meters and 3883 meters in Switzerland and Italy.
