DIRECTIONS FROM ENGELBERG TO 'ALPHAVEN' :

Only one road into town... follow that until you hit a sharp right hand turn, 75 metres later, turn left (Monastery now on your right... YOU CAN'T MISS IT.) Follow road, it turns left after 150 Metres then turn right after another 75 Metres... You are now on "Schwand" (Strasse). This is a narrow road, follow it up the hill (approx. 600 Metres) look out for a sharp right turn-off into "Zelgli" (It is signposted) ... Follow our winding road up until you see the house "CHA CHA" directly in front of you, turn immediately left and after 50 metres we are the last house on the right ... number 44.
