Engelberger Aa
Engelberger Aa (or Engelbergeraa) is a river in Switzerland. It rises west of Surenenpass in the Canton of Uri, flows through the valley of Engelberg and Nidwalden. At Buochs, it empties into Lake Lucerne and is thus a tributary of the river Reuss, which drains that lake.
Bürgenstock railway
The Bürgenstock railway is a funicular railway in the canton of Nidwalden, Switzerland. The line links the landing stage at Kehrsiten-Bürgenstock, served by the regular passenger boats of the Schifffahrtsgesellschaft des Vierwaldstättersees, with the Bürgenstock resort and its famous hotels. The railway was opened in 1888 and was originally a water-ballast funicular with an Abt rack braking rail. Today the funicular is electric and automatic, but it still uses the original cabins.
