Itinerary:
Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe
At 3454 m a.s.l., the Jungfraujoch is arguably the highest train station in all of Europe. Snow and ice are guaranteed but so is a good time: The Sphinx Terrace with its fantastic view onto the Aletsch Glacier, the Ice Palace and the Walking Plateau for walks in eternal snow are attractions that are open year round.
Kleine Scheidegg – Eiger North Face
At 3454 m a.s.l., the Jungfraujoch is arguably the highest train station in all of Europe.

Schynige Platte – Paradise of Nature
The Schynige Platte is a classic among alpine excursions. With its nostalgic cogwheel train, interesting and well-groomed hiking trails and a botanical Alpine garden, it offers something for everybody.
Grindelwald – First
A brief 20-minute aerial cable-car brings passengers from Grindelwald to the First. From here, you can admire the alpine peaks and set out on hikes on the 100 km long trail network.
Schilthorn – Piz Gloria
There is no better place to fully appreciate the breathtaking beauty of the Swiss Alps than from the summit of the 3000 m high Schilthorn, which you reach in 20 minutes by cable car from Mürren. Just imagine yourself comfortably installed in our revolving restaurant, and enjoy more than 200 mountain peaks slowly passing in front of your window.
