    Hi. I’m staying in Luzern for a couple of days and planning to go to Mt Titlis by train tomorrow. I do noted that from Luzern there is a direct train to Engelberg.

    my questions:

    1) From Engelberg there is a shuttle towards the Mt. Titlis. What is the bus number to go there and going back to Engelberg?

    2) If i’m walking to the Mt. Titlis how far it goes to go reach there?

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello Isyraf

    Welcome to MySwissAlps

    I have done a quick search.Ā  It seems that the Engelberg buses do not start running until 30th November.Ā  The SBB electronic timetable is telling me that the bottom station for the Titlisbahn is 13 minutes walk from the train station.Ā  (I have walked it several times; i would have said 10-12 minutes – but I walk fast!)

    Best wishes for your trip up Titlis.

    Roger
