Top of Europe: Discover Europe’s Highest Railway in the Heart of the UNESCO World Heritage site
You’ve never experienced Switzerland like this before: Immerse yourself in the high alpine wonderland of eternal ice, snow, and rock at 3,454 metres above sea level with a breathtaking view of the longest glacier in the Alps.
Icy air sweeps over your face, snow crunches underfoot, and the panorama almost takes your breath away. After arriving at the highest-altitude railway station in Europe, you are greeted by the high alpine wonderland and the history of its development in multimedia experience tour. You will find yourself in the middle of the Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch UNESCO World Heritage Site, surrounded by four- thousand-metre peaks and eternal snow – even in summer.
There is a lot to experience and see: On a mirror-smooth tour through a frosty world, you will discover enchanting sculptures in the niches of the Ice Palace. From the Sphinx Terrace you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Aletsch glacier, the longest glacier in the Alps. In the Snow Fun Park, take a bird’s eye view of Europe’s longest glacier on a flight with the Tyrolienne.
Experience the Eiger Express, the most modern tricable gondola in the world, which reduces the travel time to the Top of Europe by 47 minutes and offers a breathtaking ride along the world-famous Eiger North Face. The Jungfrau Railway then takes you the rest of the way – as it has since 1912.
