What to expect
Your journey begins at Grindelwald Terminal. From there, the ticket covers the route
Grindelwald Terminal → Eigergletscher → Jungfraujoch and back. The climb to Jungfraujoch is a classic Swiss engineering feat:
you travel roughly 9 km, with about 7 km inside tunnels carved through the mountains.
Along the way you’ll get views of the Eiger and Mönch, plus a short 5-minute stop at Eismeer
to admire the surrounding peaks and ice scenery. After the ride, you’ll arrive at Jungfraujoch and have free time to immerse yourself in the alpine environment.
