SKI LODGE BULLETIN

Ski Lodge Engelberg is a story about two old skiing friends, who finally took the leap of faith and realised an old dream – to open a hotel in the Alps. Niklas and Eric met for the first time in Engelberg in 2002, when they both had long hair, dreamt of becoming professional freeskiers and very few had heard of the little monastery town at the end of the road. After university and ski bumming years, they ended up with long hours behind desks in Stockholm and London, working in finance and advertising.

LAUB<br />

The iconic Laub run towers over the town of Engelberg, enticing you to explore its<br />

1000+ vertical meters of deep snow. When this paradise of powder calls your name,<br />

resistance is futile. The run, which maintains a constant 30 to 40 degree pitch, is<br />

several soccer fields wide. There’s enough room for everyone. The more the<br />

merrier! Laub does not pose the technical challenges of its four siblings, but don’t let its<br />

simplicity fool you. Its name, in some Swiss dialects, means “avalanche.” Let the hardcore<br />

locals test the snow stability before you drop in.<br />

The Ritz restaurant sits at the bottom of the run, so reward yourself with<br />

a scrumptious lunch. If you want to go back for more, the owners run a minibus<br />

service, which delivers you to the Gerschnialp gondola station for the ride back up the<br />

mountain.<br />
