Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
On January, I'll go for a snowboarding vacation in Engelberg (Titlis).
Since its my first time snowboarding in Switzerland, there are some issues I need clarification with from the Swiss-old-hands.
So, could you please explain -
- what is "Halbtax", and who is eligible to receive it ?
- What is "Snow'n'Rail" ?
- What would be the recommended skipass to buy if I:

Arrive in Switzerland via Zurich airport.
Plan to get to Engelberg by Train.
Will have 9 days of Snowboarding in Engelberg. |
Thanks,
BR.

Can not help either even though I am out there now, but the rail ticket return to a resort seems to be a good deal, and I believe you can buy a train ticket and ski pass on the net as a sort of package, but I am never that organised. BTW weather great, having fun

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Thanks rayscoops, DebbiDoesSnow, and Swirly.
BTW, rayscoops - when you say "... even though I am out there now": do you mean you're in Engelberg ?
Bye,
