Jungfraujoch 

Expericne the top of Europe!

This unique roundtrip takes you from Interlaken, Grindelwad or Wengen to the highest railway station in Europe (11,333 feet)-- the Jungfraujoch.

cA modern cogwheel railway first takes you to Kleine Scheidegg with an altitude of 6,762 feet -- located at the foot of the notorious Eiger North Wall

From here, the Jungfrau Railway climbs to the Eiger Glaacier Station which is well known for its mountain restaurant and polar dog Kennels.

Next you continue up through the Eiger tunnel, to the Eigerwand and Eismeer stations with five-minute stop at each station. You will enjoy some spectaular sightseeing through large observation windows, hewn from solid Alpine rock.

Finally you arrive on the Jungfraujoch, in the heart of a glorious glacier world on the very top of Europe!  The superb views extend as far as the summits of tje Vosges Mountains in France and the Black Forest in Germany.

Attractions on the Jungfraujoch:

The Great Aletsch Glacier, at 22 km (13.6 miles)  is the longest ice-stream in the Alps. It begins directly on the Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe. Ice Palace, Ice Gateway, Sphinx observation terrace, Plateau with hiking in the eternal snow, "Top of Europe" Glacier Restaurant, summer ski & snowboard park, husky-drawn sled rides, summer adventure attractions and High Alpine Research Exhibitions.


Schilthorn / Piz Gloria 

Expericne a 360º Alpine Panorama  

Easy to get to from Interlaken or Luterbrunnen or Mürren, the top of the Schilthorn has 9,842 feet of altitude. From here you can admire Switzerland's most breathtaking 360º alpine panorama.

James Bond fans will discover that the Schilthorn was transormed into the "iz Gloria" for the filming of "On her Majesty's Secret Service."  Dramatic views of snow-covered mountain peaks and the modern arieal cable way gliding all the way to the mountain summit led United Artist to choos the Schilthorn.

How to reach Mürren:

From Interlaken, take the train to Lauterbrunnen, then there are two ways to reach Mürren:
