Jungfraujoch (Top of Europe):<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jungfraujoch is also referred to as the Top of Europe because it is the location of the highest railroad station on the continent at 3,454 meters. It attracts thousands of tourists year round given the unique experiences available on site. Like most things in Switzerland, tickets are exceedingly expensive. If you have the money, then it’s an experience worth doing. And if it’s not in your price range, I promise you won’t feel like you’ve missed out. Prices vary by season and location. During peak season an average ticket could cost around 236 CHF, which is equivalent to almost $250 USD. The one upside is that almost all activities at the top are included in the price, excluding Snow Fun Park.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n The Jungfraujoch is only accessible by train. To get here, you can either hop on the Eiger Express (cable car) from Grindelwald Terminal or take the train from Lauterbrunnen or Wengen to Kleine Scheidegg. Both routes to Kleine Scheidegg are beautiful and I wouldn’t miss either experience (whether you chose to go to the top of Jungfraujoch or not). From Kleine Schedegg you’ll hop on a luxurious train for the final part of your journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n Here are some of the main attractions you’ll find here:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Ice Palace<\/strong><\/td> Dubbed as many tourists favorite activity, The Ice Palace is a series of corridors containing ice sculptures of bears, eagles, and many other animals. The “palace” is carved into Aletsch, Europe’s longest glacier.<\/td><\/tr> Sphinx Observation Deck<\/strong><\/td> In just 25 seconds you’ll travel 100 meters on an ultrafast lift to the observatory, which is an international research station. Here, the views are nothing short of amazing!<\/td><\/tr> Alpine Sensation<\/strong><\/td> The Alpine Sensation is a 250m long corridor that pays tribute to the miners who built the railway and highlights the history of their hard work.<\/td><\/tr> Snow Fun Park<\/strong><\/td> The park is open from mid-May to mid-October and offers skiing, sledding, snow-tubing, and snowboarding in the summer.<\/td><\/tr> Jungfrau Panorama<\/strong><\/td> Virtual panoramic film highlighting the amazing views from on top of the mountain.<\/td><\/tr> M\u00f6nchsjochh\u00fctte<\/strong><\/td> A 45 minute hike through a glacier path to Switzerland’s highest altitude serviced mountain hut.<\/td><\/tr> Lindtt Swiss Chocolate Experience<\/strong><\/td> Walk around and indulge in these delicious treats because when in Switzerland…. you must eat Swiss chocolate!<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n 3. Mannlichen:<\/p>\n\n\n\n M\u00e4nnlichen is a 2,343m-high mountain ridge separating Lauterbrunnen Valley and Grindelwald. It’s worth visiting for its unbeatable panoramic views of the Jungfrau Region. In the summer, it is a point of departure for countless treks including to Alpiglen or Kleine Scheidegg. The Liselotte, or Royal Walk, theme paths are great routes for families. In the winter, you’ll find winter walking trails and sled runs, as well as a restaurant with spectacular views.On a clear day, you can take in the Lauterbrunnen Valley, Grindelwald, Eiger, M\u00f6nch, Jungfrau, and Lake Thun. To reach M\u00e4nnlichen, you can either take the gondola from Grindelwald or the cable car from Lauterbrunnen-Wengen. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n 4. Staubbach Falls & Trummelbach Falls<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lauterbrunnen is known as the Valley of 72 Waterfalls <\/em>and Staubbach Falls is perhaps the most famous and hardest to miss! Staubbach Falls is the third tallest waterfall at 297m. It’s located just a short walk from the train station. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can hike up a short dirt path to a lookout behind the waterfall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n Trummelbach Falls, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a series of ten glacier waterfalls thundering down inside a mountain. Trummelbach is fed the meltwater from the glaciers of the Eiger, Monch, and Jungfrau and carries 20,000 liters of water per second down the mountain. The waterfalls are accessible via a networks of tunnels, bridges, and pathways. You can either climb the many stairs to the 10 viewpoints or take the funicular close to the top and walk down. I would definitely opt for the latter. It’s a quick, easy thing to do and only costs 14 CHF.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n 5. Paragliding in Lauterbrunnen or Interlaken<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are a thrill seeker looking for the ultimate experience, this is a must do! You can either launch from a mountain and fly over the green, lush U-shaped fields of Lauterbrunnen or fly over the crystal clear lake in Interlaken. There are multiple companies and like everything else, the cost is a hefty one!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n 6. Explore Murren Village <\/p>\n\n\n\n The picturesque, charming, car-free village of M\u00fcrren is perched on the mountainside overlooking the Lauterbrunnen Valley. It’s a wonderful place for hiking enthusiasts who seek to enjoy the beauty of Switzerland. In the winter, you’ll find skiing for all levels and the town is actually the highest altitude ski resort in the Bernese Oberland. To get here, you can hop on the No. 141 public bus which runs from Lauterbrunnen to M\u00fcrren every thirty minutes just outside the Railway Station.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n 7. Mount Schilthorn<\/p>\n\n\n\n To reach Mount Schilthorn summit, board the cable car in Stechelberg, Gimmelwald, M\u00fcrren, or Birg. At the top, you can enjoy exceptional panoramic views and wine-and-dine in the world’s first revolving restaurant, Piz Gloria, at an altitude of almost 3,000 meters. In 1969, Schilthorn was featured in the James Bond movie On Her Majesty\u2019s Secret Service<\/em> and is also referred to as the “James Bond Mountain.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n 8. Harder Kulm<\/p>\n\n\n\n Harder Kulm sits atop the Hardermatte mountain in the Bernese Alps. From Interlaken Ost train station, walk five minutes along the water and continue to follow the signs for the funicular station. The funicular has large, clear-glass window panels to take in the amazing views on the ten minute ride to the top. You can also access Harder Kulm on foot by hiking through a strenuously steep path (no thanks!). Harder Kulm\u2019s viewing platform, known as Two Lakes Bridge, is an astonishing place that captures the beauty of the surrounding lakes and Swiss Alps. From opposite points of the viewing platform, you’ll have spectacular views of Lake Brienz and Lake Thun. After you’re done getting some epic photos, enjoy some cheese fondue at Harder Kulm Panorama Restaurant!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n 9. Boat Cruise in Interlaken<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step onboard and enjoy the magnificent scenery of either Lake Brienz and\/or Lake Thun. You’ll find plenty of options exclusively on GetYourGuide, Airbnb, and Tripadvisor during the spring and summer months.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n Check our more destinations around the world: HERE<\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Jungfrau Region, named after Switzerland’s Bernese Oberland’s highest peak, is truly a picture perfect, breathtaking place.
