Jungfraujoch Top of Europe Day Trip From Interlaken
Depart from a centrally located pickup point in Interlaken and climb aboard a comfortable, climate-controlled coach destined for Grindelwald. Relax as you admire beautiful panoramas of Swiss countryside and listen to illuminating commentary from your guide. On arrival in Grindelwald, board the Eiger Express gondola for a ride to the Eiger Station. Feel your excitement heighten as you ascend to Jungfraujoch in a cogwheel train; marvel at the Eiger, Jungfrau, and Mönch peaks along the way, and then disembark at Europe’s highest railway station. Gasp as you take in sweeping vistas of the icy landscape. From the Sphinx Observation Terrace, scour the horizon for the Aletsch Glacier, the longest glacier in Europe, and see if you can spot neighboring countries such as France and Germany. Heighten your exhilaration on a guided wander through the Ice Palace, a magical cave located within a glacier, and then return to the cogwheel train for the scenic descent to Grindelwald. Travel to your awaiting coach in Lauterbrunnen and reflect on your day during the journey back to Interlaken.
