Visiting Zurich for 3 days

Hello, we will be in Zurich between Jan 3-6th. Thinking of sking on the 5th. We are all intermediate skiers and snow boarders. Is Engleberg a good choice or would you recomend something else. We will be using public transportation.

Thank you very much

Engleberg is a 2:20 train ride from Zürich so you will have to get up very early to make it worthwhile. It only takes 1:04 to get to Flumserberg http://www.zuerich.com/en/Visitor/Information/news/direktzug-flumserberg.html Swiss railways offer discounted combined rail tickets and lift passes (Snow'n'Rail tickets) to many ski areas once they open http://www.sbb.ch/freizeit-ferien/tagesausfluege/snownrail.html Snow'n'Rail customers also receive a 15% discount on ski hire at Intersport Rent shops.

Take the late train evening before, resort is well worth the visit.
