Additional Information

Titlis, a pinnacle of the Uri Alps, straddles the border of the Obwalden and Bern cantons. Standing at an elevation of 3,238 meters (10,623 ft) above sea level, it is the tallest peak north of the Susten Pass, situated between the Bernese Oberland and Central Switzerland.
The final leg of the cable car journey traverses the glacier. At Klein Titlis, there’s an opportunity to explore a lit-up glacier cave accessible from the cable car station, which also houses shops and restaurants. The Titlis Cliff Walk, being the highest altitude suspension bridge in Europe, offers panoramic views of the Alps.
A tour guide will accompany you throughout this journey, answering your queries about the region and its people, all the while pointing out the evolving landscapes. The guide is familiar with the area and will steer you towards lesser-known spots, away from the usual tourist haunts.

Mt. Titlis Guided Tour - We were planning to do it ourselves but decided to go with a tour guide instead. So happy that we did as it was quite busy when we got tonthe venue but Abraham, our experienced guide, knew all the tricks and he helped make our experience unforgettable.
