Emmeten

At 750 metres above sea level, the summer and winter holiday resort of Emmetten, around 25 km south of Lucerne, affords breathtaking views of Lake Lucerne and its surrounding mountain world including the famous Rigi and Mount Pilatus. The village has two mountain transport systems: one up to the paragliding paradise of Niederbauen (1923m) and another to the skiing and hiking area of Klewenalp-Stockhütte (1600m). The area has over 40 km of well-prepared skiing & snowboarding pistes from easy to medium difficulty and is also ideal for snowshoe treks in the perfect peace of a wonderful winter landscape. Guided snowshoe treks including hire of equipment and fondue fun are also available. Sledging and winter-walking fans are also well catered for and families can count on a very warm welcome – Emmetten has been awarded the “Family Friendly” label. There are lots of slopes and ski lifts for children and beginners. And as well as instruction, the ski school also offers a ski kindergarten and childcare.
