Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Sphinx viewing platform is located on the Jungfrau mountain, where you can see the 360-degree panorama of the Alps such as Jungfrau, Monk and Eiger within a few kilometers, which is very spectacular. From Jungfrau Station, take the lift to the Sphinx Observation Deck at an altitude of about 3571 meters. The viewing platform is set up on a vast ice surface with guardrails around it. The Aletsch Glacier is right in front of you, and when the weather is clear, you can enjoy the scenery of neighboring France, Germany and Italy from multiple angles.

Top of Europe: Snow, Sculptures, SlopesHop on a train to reach Jungfraujoch, the Top of Europe, without the huffing and puffing! The air thins as you head up the mountain so take note not to over exert yourself. The ice palace with beautiful ice sculptures is fascinating to visit, especially if you are from the tropics like me! Walking in the snow is fun but watch out for slippery ice as you queue to take a pic with Swiss flag. The view is breathtaking and it is COLD! Sunnies are really helpful with the blinding snow. Something special to do would be to video call your loved ones and show them the Top of Europe ❤️ There are a couple of eateries and a variety of shops if you are looking for Swiss gifts and keepsakes. The Top of Europe pass entitles you to some discount here. Opt for the gondolas as you head down to Grindelwald first where you can get a cuppa hot (Lindt) chocolate: it’s amazingly good! That was our ‘cherry on top’ to complete this unique adventure. My #2023travelwish is to bring my friends on a trip to New Zealand’s South Island to explore the glaciers and look out for wild life. #2023travelwish #topofeurope #switzerland #friendstraveltogetherTrav3L bUg10

on top of Europe#skiadventure Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe - is easily accessible by cable car, cogwheel trains via Grindelwald, or via Lauterbrunnen-Wengen. It was not cheap to visit but it was all worth it. The view was scenic, and it has a viewing point in the Bernese Alps, at an altitude of 3,454 m. Plan your trip carefully and refer to the weather forecast before you purchase your tickets. A winter wonderland to be at! #mytripvlogcharlini17

Special place with our first snow experienceIt is an wonderful experience coming up here without doing a the hiking as people in the past did. The train ride was very comfortable and we were able to see the transformation from green valey ro snow-slope and snowy mountain. The moment we reached the top, the view was absolutely amazing. The snow was so fine to touch and the sky was so blue. Recommended to bring sunglasses as it is very glaring. #skiadventurewinter1677

Different Routes From Interlaken to Jungfrauj#celebratewithtrip 1.Interlaken-Grindelwald-Jungfraujoch Via Eiger Express Duration: 1 Hour 30 Minutes 2.Interlaken-Grindelwald-Jungfraujoch Duration: 2 Hours 15 Minutes 3.Interlaken-Lauterbrunnen-Jungfraujoch Duration: 2 Hours From Interlaken, we first took the R62 train to Lauterbrunnen. The journey took around 30 minutes and once we reach Lauterbrunnen, we switched trains to the Wengernalp Railway service which takes us up to Kleine Scheidegg. We spent sometimes in Lauterbrunnen and enjoyed the view of the Lauterbrunnen valley with its Staubbach Fall as we slowly travel to our destination. Once we reached Kleine Scheidegg, we started the final part of our journey. We took the train from Kleine Scheidegg to Jungfraujoch. Most of the journey will be through the tunnels inside the mountain at an altitude of 3,000 meters. #jungfraujoch #switzerland #friendstripMel225

beautiful viewA trip to the top of Europe is highly recommended. only access to the top is by train . train ticket itself is on the high price but it totally worth it consider the view and experience you will be getting will be price less . Uo the top you can go to the outdoor observatory and take picture Yes it will be very old wear warm enough . For the experiment I bring a can of beer and left it out in the open . within 5 min when I open the can it already cold . cold enough to drink on the top of Europe for your memories there is a chop near the train waiting area to stamp on a travel passport ( will be given when you purchase the ticket ) I#spooktaculartripMaxBurger5

The Tallest Mountain In Europe - JungfrauSwitzerland is one of the most breathtaking trip ever, and this of course comes with price! There is 2 popular mountains here in Switzerland, 1 is the matterhorn mountain while the other is the jungfraujoch mountain(the tallest mountain in Europe). Jungfrau(pronounced as Yong Frau), got its popularity because of the beautiful train ride you get on from Wengen where it will gives you a scenic 360 view from the train while going up to the mountain, it also is called the top of Europe, this means the air up there is thin! Ample clothing here is definitely needed as all year round it is cold and icy but of course do not head here during winter, I've never tried because I assume if the town is freezing, I can't imagine what's up here. The best time to go here is during August - November where also the weather is dry and crisps. #fallingforfall #mountains #switzerland #scenic #breathtaking #views #europeKinnie Kong5

Best Way up to Jungfraujoch @ Switzerland 🇨🇭#winhkflight #couplestrip #travel #transport #awesomepic #winhkflight To experience Jungfraujoch and return, start by taking the scenic train journey from either Interlaken Ost or Grindelwald to the Jungfraujoch station. Enjoy the breathtaking views along the way. Once at the top, explore the attractions like the Ice Palace and Sphinx Observatory. #switzerland #europe For the return journey, you have a couple of options: 1️⃣ Return by Train: Take the same route back down to Interlaken Ost or Grindelwald via the Jungfrau Railway. 2️⃣ Alternative Route: For a different experience, you can descend from Jungfraujoch to Kleine Scheidegg by train and then continue your journey to Grindelwald or Lauterbrunnen by train. From there, you can catch connecting trains to your destination or explore more of the beautiful Swiss Alps. Whichever option you choose, ensure to check the train schedules in advance and consider booking tickets ahead of time, especially during peak seasons. Last but not least, Dreaming of winning flight tickets to Hong Kong for our honeymoon adventure with my boyfriend. Here's to hoping for a chance to celebrate our love in the vibrant city! 🇭🇰✨ #winhkflight #couplestrip #europe #travel #winhkflightGinny_07071
