Engelberg Klostermatte Ski Area
Klostermatte is the ideal ski area for beginners and families, located conveniently near the Benedictine monastery. It offers gentle, wide slopes perfect for learning, serviced by several magic carpets and a drag lift. This area also features a dedicated children's area and a 'Snowli' Swiss Snow Kids Village for supervised lessons. It's a fantastic alternative for those not ready for the larger, more challenging slopes. The ski area includes approximately 2-3 km of easy (blue) pistes. An on-site restaurant and sun terrace provide refreshment. Lift tickets for Klostermatte are separate from the main resort passes, making it an affordable option for beginners. Prices for a day pass are around CHF 30-40 for adults. Open during winter season, typically from mid-December to late March.
