    Hi,

    We’re planning a trip to Engelberg this weekend and we’re looking into taking the cable car up to Mount Titlis.

    I’m a bit confused as to the pricing: a return ticket costs Engelberg-Titlis costs 92 CHF but a day pass for the ski area comes in at 65 CHF.

    Is it correct that with the day pass, we can also take the cable car from Engelberg to Titlis, making a day pass the cheaper option?

    Thanks!

    Hi Luc, and welcome to MySwissAlps,

    It is not possible to buy a skipass for the return ride with the cable car because this pass is only for skiers or snowboarders. The cable car ticket Engelberg – TITLIS return costs CHF 92, if you have a Swiss Travel Pass it costs CHF 46.
