If you want to visit the heart of the Swiss Alps, then don’t skip the Jungfraujoch Top of Europe!
First, what does Jungfrau mean? Jungfrau means young lady. And here’s the story about these 3 famous peaks: The Jungfrau mountain (young lady) is next to the Mönch (monk), who is protecting her from the Eiger (ogre).
📋In today’s video we’re explaining exactly how to get to Jungfraujoch from Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen Valley, or Grindelwald.
🚂Then we show you the Jungfraubahn (train) and the Jungfrau railway station, which happens to be the highest in Europe!
🤑 BONUS: We even share how you can get discount tickets to Jungfraujoch! 🆓
🗺️ Once up at the Top of Europe, we’re going to follow the Jungfraujoch tour, a complete guide to the 10 activities such as the Jungfraujoch Sphinx Observatory and the Jungfraujoch Ice Palace.
🥾And, one of our favorite activities of the day includes walking (hiking) on the Aletsch Glacier to the Mönchsjochhütte (mountain hut)...at nearly 12,000 feet in elevation!
This jam-packed guide tells you everything you need to know before you visit Jungfraujoch, including:
❄️Weather (hint: check out the Jungfraujoch webcam)
🏔️Elevation
🎟️Tickets
⛄Activities
⏰Time to spend
🛍️Souvenir shopping
And more!

Hi Brett and Jana! I’ll be going at the end of March, so excited! I was looking at the website to book tickets in advance. I’m planning to get the Half Fare Card too. Would I still be able to book a Jungfraujoch ticket even before I get to Switzerland and “start” my Half Fare Card, or would they ask me to put something down to verify the Half Fare Card before I check out with the ticket? Would the ticket be like an email or separate mobile ticket, and then I’d also have to show my Half Fare Card in the SBB app when I get there? Also I was debating on how early I should book the ticket in advance since we wouldn’t know what weather would be like.. does the price increase as the closer you get to the date you would want to visit? Thanks so much :)

@AplinsintheAlps Жыл бұрын

Hi there! Prices won't increase as time gets closer, so there's really no need to book tickets far in advance. In fact, we never book in advance or reserve a seat-we just go early in the day before it gets too crowded (and avoid the weekend if possible). You can book tickets through the SBB mobile app, and can do so even if you haven't "started" your half fare card yet. Just make sure it's valid when you travel, because you'll likely be asked to prove you have one!

how does berner oberland pass work ? will they allow me to ride train to grindelwald and eiger express just after conforming this pass or is there any other procedure

Great content guys! Question: I'm coming in August and the day I'll be able to go is either a Fri, Sat, or Sun. I'm thinking this is the worst combination crowd-wise but don't have any flexibility. I'm going to plan on going there as early as possible but wonder if you feel it's still doable with the anticipated crowds and if you have any other crowd beating tips. Thanks and keep the wonderful info coming!

We can't predict the crowds, but you should be alright if you go up first thing in the morning! (Most tourists like to sleep in, haha!)

Love your content. I hv a question. i want to cover the following spots in one day. interlakrn to grindelwald first and do first cliff. Followed by grindelwald to jungfrau taking eiger express and return from lauterbrunnen and halt there for few hours then back to interlaken. Is it a possible to cover in one day. If yes. What is the process of booking tickets for all the routes.

@AplinsintheAlps Жыл бұрын

It’s very unlikely that you can do all of that in one day! You could do 2 of those things but not all 3 because of the time it takes to travel between each place (more than 1 hour for all of those routes). So pick your top 2 😊

@photosbynickel Жыл бұрын

We went here in 2021 and got screwed because we pre-bought tickets for top of Europe and the day we could go it was horrible weather and we could see absolutely nothing when we got up there. We did all the activities like the glacier and stuff but did not get the view at all. We are going back this September and we are wondering if it's worth the $130 extra we would have to pay for the two of us to go back up there just for the view, what do you think? Is it worth it to still see the view since we've already done all the activities up there? We are planning to go up First this year and we already did schilthorn last year.

Hi, may i know what are the additional things we need to purchase/reserve if we already have our swiss travel pass? Also, how many hours did you guys spend exploring all the places in your video? Thank you for your informative video!!

@AplinsintheAlps Жыл бұрын

Hi there! You'll need to buy a ticket from Grindelwald Terminal (or Wengen, depending on which direction you're coming from) to Jungfraujoch. With the STP, you'll get a 25% discount, and you can buy those online or at one of the stations. We never buy a seat reservation for this route, preferring to go early in the day and on a weekday. Most people can do everything in 2 1/2 or 3 hours. But if you also want to visit the Monchsjochhütte, allow for about another 3 hours (1.5 hrs to get there and back, plus about an hour and a half for lunch). Hope this helps!

Brilliant thanks, can I pick the train up that's coming from Interlaken at Grindelwald Station to get to the eiger express cable car Terminal? Also on the way back from Jungfraujoch we would like to go to Lauterbrunnen so working back on your directions am I to believe we can get a train there from the station at Eigergletscher. Thanks, Hope this makes sense

@AplinsintheAlps 2 ай бұрын

Hi there! From the village of Grindelwald, you have to take the train that's going back in the direction of Interlaken Ost, but then you'd exit at the first stop (Grindelwald Terminal). From Jungfraujoch, there's a train down to Kleine Scheidegg, then another from there to Lauterbrunnen (passing through Wengen). Hope that helps!

So glad our videos have been helpful! With the Berner Oberland Pass, you'll receive a discount on the trip to Jungfraujoch, and you'll only need a roundtrip ticket between Eigergletscher and Jungfraujoch. Probably easiest to just buy that ticket at a rail station once you're here in the region. Enjoy!

Hello! Be sure to make note that the Interrail pass only gives you a discount on the route that you mentioned, so you'll need to buy a ticket and ask for the appropriate discount. But once you have your ticket, you can stop and explore anywhere along the way, as long as you do so within the same day!!
