Full description

Jungfraujoch sits gracefully at an elevation of 3,454 meters above sea level, offering a mountain experience that exceeds all expectations and is unlike any other mountain journey.

Departing from your hotel in Zurich (the departing city can be customized), AlpExcursion's friendly driver-guide will take you on a breathtakingly scenic trip that captivates you at every turn until you arrive in Grindelwald. This village embodies the authentic Swiss charm with its chalet-style wooden houses and an abundance of cozy restaurants.

From this heavenly place, you will take the cogwheel ride and rise to the Top of Europe - Jungfraujoch.

Nowadays, Jungfraujoch is the highest railway station in Europe, an honor recognized by UNESCO as a "World Heritage Site," where perpetual snow and ice await.

The approximately one-and-a-half-hour journey to the summit is enveloped in stunning panoramic landscapes. Along the way, a brief stop of 5 minutes at Eismeer (Sea of Ice) offers a moment of awe before continuing the ascent.

Upon arrival, you will be presented with a list of entertaining activities. Enjoy the Ice Palace, home to lifelike ice sculptures of eagles, penguins, and bears, creating the illusion that they have been frozen in time.

Another highlight is the Sphinx Tower – one of the highest observatories in the world, offering a 360-degree view and the opportunity to capture stunning images of the Eiger, Monch, and Jungfrau Mountains at eye level.

As you traverse between the Sphinx Hall and Ice Palace, you'll encounter the Alpine Sensation, a spine-tingling experience not just due to the frosty temperatures but also due to the history of sacrifices made by miners to create the eternal winter wonderland we enjoy today.

After hours of exploration, you can savor a tasty local dish at one of the panoramic restaurants on the top or delve into the world of delicate Swiss chocolate at the Lindt shop.

The descent offers a different flavor, bringing you to the charming Swiss town of Lauterbrunnen, renowned for its 72 enchanting waterfalls and vibrant Alpine meadows.

Stroll through the village to admire its pure and natural beauty. It has a huge diversity of sightseeing attractions, such as historical monuments, natural wonders, thrilling activities, and entertainment options.

Filled with unforgettable moments and photographs of Switzerland's most iconic tourist destinations, AlpExcursion will smoothly transfer you to the initial meeting point.
