Jungfraujoch Day Trips

For your day trip, you should also have an additional voucher to present along with your Swiss Pass, which you will need to exchange for your tickets at the ticket desk prior to the journey. Your Swiss Pass will cover any journeys up to the actual mountain excursion, please reference the suggested timetable on your travel vouchers. Please note that there should be a voucher for each traveler for this excursion, and it is only valid on the date shown on the voucher.

Please ensure that you bring your passport, Swiss Pass, and your Jungfrau voucher, which was sent separately with the rest of your rail tickets. Ensure you keep your ticket throughout the day as you’ll need to show it before each leg of the journey.

Jungfraujoch, the Top of Europe, is one of the most beautiful and iconic places in the Swiss Alps year-round. The journey up and down the mountain is exquisite, and with your Swiss Pass, you can travel at any time that you like. Please keep in mind that it does take about two and a half hours each way, and there are plenty of things to do at the top. You can also hop off at Lauterbrunnen and Grindelwald to explore if you want to!

Begin your journey at the Interlaken Ost station, heading to Lauterbrunnen. Choose to change trains heading for Kleine Scheidegg now or take a slight detour to see the stunning waterfalls before continuing on. Once at Kleine Scheidegg, you’ll take two more trains to the top through Eigergletscher station.

At the top, visit the Sphinx observatory overlooking the sea of snow from the Aletsch glacier and stroll through the Ice Palace, Alpine Sensation and Jungfrau Panorama. You can’t visit Switzerland without trying Swiss chocolate, so why not try the world’s highest chocolate shop at the Lindt Swiss Chocolate Experience? Your camera roll will be full after today, especially when there is snow 365 days a year and ice is guaranteed!

Once you’ve decided to return to Interlaken, head to Jungfraujoch station to Eigergletscher, where you’ll board the new Eiger Express tri-cable gondola towards Grindelwald. You can either hop right on the next train to Interlaken or take a walk through the picturesque Swiss village of Grindelwald before the last leg of your descent.
