Jungfrau

 
Overview

The Jungfrau, at 4,158 meters is one of the main summits of the Bernese Alps, located between the northern canton of Bern and the southern canton of Valais, halfway between Interlaken and Fiesch.

Description

The train ride up to Jungfraujoch (3454m) is one of Switzerland's classic experiences. Following an audacious route right through the heart of the Eiger, the railway was completed in 1912 and today carries more than two million people a year through some of Europe's most phenomenal high Alpine scenery.
