Wolfenschiessen

Wolfenschiessen is best known in Nidwalden for the Benedictine convent of Maria-Rickenbach, set above the Engelberger Aa valley in the hamlet of Niederrickenbach. The municipality stretches from the valley floor towards Alpine slopes on the route between Lake Lucerne and Engelberg, providing a rural counterpoint to central Switzerland’s larger resorts. The Engelberger Aa forms a defining thread through the valley as it flows north towards Lake Lucerne. Maria-Rickenbach remains a living religious community, and its elevated setting is reached by cable car from Dallenwil.
