Jungfraufoch

Activity overview

Travel like never before as you take trains and a coach to the top of Europe and marvel at the wonders the Swiss Alps and the Aletsch Glacier have to offer.

Your coach will pick you up at KISC and take you to the base of the Jungfraujoch. Here you will take a train ride like no other, passing through mountain tunnels, changing at train stations in the middle of the mountains and reaching an altitude of 3,454 metres. Once you reach the top, the views will take your breath away. Look out over the horizon with nothing but snow and mountains as far as the eye can see.  Once your finished you will take the trains back down to meet the coach and then return to KISC.
