Meal: Excluded
We will depart from Interlaken and board the cogwheel train in Grindelwald for a spectacular ride via Kleine Scheidegg up to Jungfraujoch. Stunning views of the world-famous triple peaks of Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau will accompany you on the way and the imposing Eiger North Face seems to be within one's grasp. Once on the top, we can immerse ourselves in the fascinating high alpine wonderland of eternal ice, snow and rock. Experience the adventure tour "Alpine Sensation" marking the 100-year anniversary of the Jungfrau Railway and visit the Sphinx Observation Terrace and Plateau with the most breath-taking panoramic views of snow-capped peaks, the neighbouring countries and Europe's longest glacier, the Aletsch Glacier. Don't forget to stroll through the tunnels of the Ice Palace located in the heart of the glacier - a once in a lifetime experience not to be missed! Restaurants are available for meals and refreshments. We will pass car-free holiday destination Wengen and head to Lauterbrunnen for the return trip.
Interlaken, Switzerland
This small Swiss town is a very popular tourist destination because of its beautiful location nestled in a valley among the Alps. There is a famous monastery and many popular, old-fashioned hotels in the area.
Jungfrau
It is the highest peak in Europe and the most attractive landscape in Berne Heights. It is called "Queen" of the Alps, 4158 meters above sea level, spanning 18 kilometers, just like a girl dressed in long hair, plain silver, lying quietly on her back between the clouds.
Eiger
It is the easternmost peak of a ridge crest that extends across the Monch to the Jungfrau at 4,158 m, constituting one of the most emblematic sights of the Swiss Alps.
Alpine Sensation
It was built to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the opening of the Jungfrau Railway and opened on April 1, 2012. Here, you can not only enjoy the beautiful ice sculptures, but also understand the story behind the railway. The visitor route is 250 meters long, directly connecting the Sphinx Hall and the Ice Palace.
Sphinx Observatory
An astronomical observatory located above the Jungfraujoch in Switzerland. The open viewing deck accessible to the public is adjacent to the observatory. It offers views of the Jungfrau, Monch, and Eiger peaks, all within a few kilometers.
