Use a floatie, a boat, anything and get in that icy glacial water and float until you hit the Marzili again. Make sure you are a relatively good swimmer, because the current is fast!

There are notices warning you at the door and the lifeguards will pull your children out of the water for infringements. Boys and men have to wear speedo type trunks. No idea why. No idea if it is the material or the length they are objecting to. My son got away with wearing his sister's bikini bottoms but, as you can imagine, he was not keen on doing so. But once you've obeyed the dress code it is a lovely place with a water slide, a big pool, a smaller pool that is deep enough to learn to swim but not deep enough to scare you and all the other things that French pools so so well - so you could easily spend most of a day here (though it gets cheaper after 5pm)

I lap pool in Engelberg! Yay!. It's a clean swim club with two 50 meter outdoor lap lanes (really…read more4 possible lanes), and 25 meter lanes inside. The cost is about 8sf and right now that's about 8 dollars. It includes a towel and shower and changing are access. The indoor pool is warmer and has a bit of a chlorine odor. The outdoor pool was my favorite. The water is so clear and clean, like bottled water. A little brisk at first but don't let that stop you --it's such a pretty swim out here. I was here on a Wednesday late afternoon and the place was mostly empty. No lifeguards, and I suspect that isn't uncommon out here. So happy to get a lap swim in out in Engelberg!

Visited these baths in Brigerbad during low season in mid-May. It was like having the place to ourselves. But this is a huge facility that caters to the ski trip crowd in the winter months. They have an infinity lap pool with at least 6-8 lanes, wet saunas, hot baths, warm baths that are indoor/outdoor with lots of cool features, and gym and massage/beauty treatments. The prices are Swiss (expensive), but worth the value. Bring your own towels, flip-flops, toiletries as this is not a day spa that provides it. They do provide lockers and hair dryers. It seemed more like a mix of a gym (with a focus on water features) and day spa, but with a restaurant as well. Anyway, totally awesome experience and a hidden gem in Brigerbad.

Everything we did at the spa was wrong. We got there too early, we wore shoes after the changing room (a huge no-no). After a swim in the admittedly beautiful roof-top jacuzzi we changed into clothing to eat lunch (sitting in wet cold clothes in the bistro did not sound appealing).... and all hell broke loose. We were 'ABSOLUTELY' not allowed to wear clothes to lunch. When we explained we didn't want to sit in wet clothes we were met with blank stares. After lunch we promptly were told off for bringing a plastic cup of water outside of the Irish Bath area and for trying to eat a muffin near where we bought it... muffins must be eaten in a specific muffin eating area apparently. All told we were scolded a total 5 times in just a few hours. If you're looking to be told off repeatedly and to pay a handsome $350 USD for the experience, this is the place for you! If not we recommend taking a swim in your hotel bathtub.
