Mount Titlis Tours

Mount Titlis Tickets and Prices

Every 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.

What a Titlis ticket costs

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.

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.

Passes that cut the fare

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.

If you already hold a Swiss Travel Pass, the train to Engelberg is covered too. The whole route is on how to get there.

What the ticket covers at the top

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.

The ticket bought through a tour vs at the counter

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.

Going on your own?

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.

The private day whose fare leaves it out

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.

Buying at the valley station

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.

Ticket questions

Is the Titlis ticket cheaper online?
The cableway charges the same fare online and at the counter. Buying online saves you the wait at the box office in Engelberg, not the queue for the gondola itself.
Does the Lucerne Travel Pass include Titlis?
Yes. The cableway gives Lucerne Travel Pass holders 100% off, so the ride from Engelberg to the summit is free. Check the pass is valid on your travel day.
Is the Ice Flyer included in the cable car ticket?
Not at the counter: the chairlift costs CHF 12, and the 50% pass discount does not apply to it. The online ticket we link below includes it, as do several guided days.
Do children pay on the Titlis cable car?
Children under 6 ride free. From 6 to 15 they pay half, CHF 51 for the return, or ride free with a Junior Card when a parent travels with them.
Can I take my dog up Titlis?
Yes. A dog pays CHF 15 for the return from Engelberg to the summit. Dogs under 30 cm at the shoulder travel free.
