ENGELBERG-TITLIS vintage ski piste trail map. Switzerland c1940 old


Ski-touren-karte von Engelberg u. umgebung. Artist/engraver/cartographer: Art. Institut Orell Füssli Zürich. Provenance: Art. Institut Orell Füssli Zürich. Type: Vintage ski piste trail map. This piste map is undated, but we think it was published around 1940. We date the map no earlier than 1927 and no later than 1952 by reference to the ski lifts marked on the map. The funicular railway (opened in 1913) connecting Engelberg to Gerschni is shown, as is the cable car onwards to Ober Trüebsee (opening 1927). However, the Brunni-Bahn cableway from Engelberg to Ristis (opened 1952) is not shown, nor the higher section of the Titlis cable car which was opened in 1967.
