FAMILY ACTIVITY HOLIDAY - ENGELBERG

Stuck for summer holiday inspiration and an excuse to play? Tailor-made summer-alpine specialist Lakes & Mountains Holidays offer a unique kids programme at the action packed Swiss resort of Engelberg. To take full advantage of the alpine adventure playground choosing from Llama and Mule-trekking, cave exploration plus numerous snow and ice activities on Titlis glacier including Snow-Tubing and Snow-Scoots… grab the kids along with plenty of energy and head off on a 7-night family activity holiday. Departs London daily from 1st July until 20th October 2007.

The family resort of Engelberg lies between 1,000 and 3,000 metres above sea level and offers numerous activities all year round. The Titlis Glacier Park offers fun and excitement on snow and ice, even during the summer season, including Snow-Tubing (involving a large tyre) down a new specially prepared run, and a variety of new sledging equipment such as Balancer, Snow-Scoots and Snake Gliss. After a speedy descent from the top of Mount Titlis, the family can experience Llama and Mule-trekking, delve deep into the local mountains during cave visits, learn to bake traditional biscuits and wow audiences with new conjuring and acting skills. Return to the child-friendly Hotel Schweizerhof located in the village centre where a relaxing Kneipp (extreme temperature water-jet-massage!) will soothe those weary muscles, alternatively develop your healthy glow in the solarium. For those in search of a slower pace and some more fragrant alpine air, the beautiful Engelberg Valley has over 360-kilometres of hiking paths through spectacular surroundings - enjoy the sound of rushing water along the Engelberg Aa, discover the bubbling spring water at the seven springs at Kilchbühlstrasse or even try paragliding.

The holiday cost is from £760 p/p, including scheduled flights from London, 2nd class Swiss rail transfer, 3* half board accommodation, one return trip via 3-lifts to the Titlis Glacier and return trip via Chairlift Ice Flyer and unlimited use of Titlis Glacier Park and lunch. This price is based on a family travelling of 2 adults and 3 children 15 and under.
