Breakfast at the Hotel, Experience Cogwheel Train Alpine Journey & Jungfraujoch Sphinx
Observatory On the Top of Europe: A visit to the Jungfraujoch puts a jewel in the crown of any
visit to Switzerland.
Description:
For more than 100 years, the Jungfrau railway has
been making its journey to Europe’s highest-altitude
railway station at 3454 metres a.s. – right at the heart
of the UNESCO heritage site “Swiss Alps Jungfrau Aletsch”. All through the year, the cog railway runs
steeply up through a tunnel to the Jungfraujoch from Kleine Scheidegg.
The tunnel leading up from the station Eigergletscher is seven kilometres in length and was built
between 1896 and 1912. One stop within the tunnel offers spectacular views onto the glacier
world outside through windows in the Eiger North Face. On the summit, visitors are greeted by a high-Alpine wonder world made of ice, snow and rocks. All of this can be marvelled at from the
viewing platforms “Sphinx” and “Plateau” on the Aletsch glacier or from the “Ice Palace”.
The Jungfrau Railways' V-Bahn project enabling the journey from Interlaken to the Jungfraujoch
in just one and a half hours. From the terminal in Grindelwald, a 3S cableway takes you directly
to the station Eigergletscher (Eiger Glacier) in 15 minutes. Once at the top, there is even more
time to enjoy the panorama and the adventure world.
