Mt Titlis Cable Car from Engelberg with Ice Flyer
The cable cars from Engelberg with the Ice Flyer, the Cliff Walk and the cave; you make your own way to the valley station.
From $140 per person
Check AvailabilityEvery way up Titlis ends on the same cable cars from Engelberg. Here is what that ride costs in 2026, which passes cut it, and what the Mount Titlis guided tours add on top.
You are buying a cable car ride, not an entry ticket. The return from Engelberg to the summit station at 3,020 metres costs CHF 102 for an adult. It takes you up through Trübsee and Stand and brings you back down the same way. The cableway's winter fare table shows the same CHF 102 return.
Children aged 6 to 15 pay half, CHF 51. Children under 6 ride free, and so does a child with a Junior Card travelling with a parent. You can also buy a single section if you plan to walk part of the way.
| Route | One way | Return |
|---|---|---|
| Engelberg to the TITLIS summit station | CHF 73 | CHF 102 |
| Engelberg to Stand | CHF 42 | CHF 59 |
| Engelberg to Trübsee | CHF 27 | CHF 38 |
| Trübsee to the summit station | CHF 55 | CHF 77 |
| Ice Flyer chairlift at the top | CHF 12 | Not sold as a return |
| A dog, Engelberg to the summit | Not sold one way | CHF 15 |
The Ice Flyer is the one ride at the top with its own fare. It is a chairlift from the summit station out over the crevasses to the snow park.
Only one pass makes Titlis free: the Lucerne Travel Pass. The Swiss Travel Pass halves the fare, and so do the Half Fare Card and the GA Travelcard. If you hold any of these, you pay CHF 51 for the return, not CHF 102.
The discount does not reach everything. On the cableway's winter fare table, the 50% cut does not apply to the Ice Flyer, so you still pay CHF 12 for it. Staying in Engelberg? Your hotel's guest card takes 10% off.
| Your card or pass | Discount on the cable car | Engelberg to the summit and back |
|---|---|---|
| Lucerne Travel Pass | 100% | Free |
| Swiss Travel Pass | 50% | CHF 51 |
| Half Fare Card or GA Travelcard | 50% | CHF 51 |
| Regional Pass Berner Oberland | 50% | CHF 51 |
| Eurail or Interrail Pass | 25% | CHF 76.50 |
| Groups of 10 or more | 20% | CHF 81.60 |
| Engelberg Guest Card | 10% | CHF 91.80 |
If you already hold a Swiss Travel Pass, the train to Engelberg is covered too. The whole route is on how to get there.
Once you reach the summit station, most of the mountain is free. Your cable car ticket lets you into:
Two things cost extra: the Ice Flyer at CHF 12, and the TITLIS Horizon deck in the new tower, which the tour operators list at CHF 18 for an adult and CHF 9 for a child, paid on the spot.
A tour costs more than the cable car because it adds the parts you would arrange yourself. Here is what you get for the difference. The online ticket includes the Ice Flyer, so on its own it is close to the counter fare plus the chairlift.
| How you go up | Price | What it adds to the cable car |
|---|---|---|
| The cable car ticket at the counter | CHF 102 return | Nothing: no Ice Flyer, no transport, no guide |
| Mount Titlis: Admission Ticket | From $137 per person | The Ice Flyer and the Glacier Park, and no time limit at the top |
| From Lucerne: Mount Titlis Half-Day Tour with Ice Flyer | From $168 per person | The coach from Lucerne, a guide and the Ice Flyer |
| From Zurich: Mount Titlis with Ice Flyer & Lucerne Day Tour | From $199 per person | The coach from Zurich, a guide, the Ice Flyer and a stop in Lucerne |
| Private Tour to Lucerne, Engelberg and Titlis with Pick-up | From $418 per person (cable car extra) | Your own guide and car from Zurich, but the cable car is extra |
The cableway's own ticket includes the Ice Flyer and the Glacier Park, has no time limit at the top, and cancels free up to 24 hours ahead.
Check the cable car is in your fare. Every guided day here includes the cable car but one: the private day from Zurich with hotel pick-up, From $418 per person (cable car extra). Its fare covers the car, the guide and the walks in Lucerne and Engelberg. Budget CHF 102 per person for the cable car on top, or CHF 51 with a Swiss Travel Pass, or pick a private day that includes it on private tours.
The other private days from Zurich include the ride up and back, so compare fares with the cable car added before you choose.
You can buy at the counter in Engelberg on the day. At busy times the box office has a queue of its own, which a ticket bought ahead lets you walk past. You still wait for the gondola with everyone else, so take the first car at 08:30 if you can.
Driving? The valley station car park costs CHF 5 per car per day. The last ride up leaves at 16:00, and the last one down at 17:00.
