Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe

Enjoy an unforgettable trip to the peak of the Jungfrau Mountain, a winter wonderland of ice, snow and glaciers alongside fabulous views (and a UNESCO World Heritage site). At 3454 metres, this is one of Europe's highest altitude railway stations.

This unique round-trip by modern cogwheel railway takes you from Interlaken to Kleine Scheidegg, (altitude 2061 metres) at the foot of the Eiger North Wall. From here the Jungfrau Railway climbs to the station at Eigergletscher, visit the mountain restaurant and polar dog kennels.

The trip continues through the Eiger tunnel to the stations at Eigerwand and Eismeer, with a five minute halt at each. Enjoy spectacular sightseeing through large observation windows hewn from solid Alpine rock.

Finally you arrive at Jungfraujoch, where superb views extend as far as the summits of the Vosges Mountains in France and the Black Forest in Germany. The Great Aletsch Glacier, at 22 km the longest ice-stream in the Alps, begins on the Jungfraujoch.
