Cogwheel Train Experience to Kleine Scheidegg

Train to Kleine Scheidegg, Switzerland

Prepare to begin your ascent via rail at Kleine Scheidegg, the serene meadow at the base of the towering Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks.

This mountain railway winds its way up through lush Alpine forests and past cascading waterfalls. As the train climbs higher, the landscape opens up to reveal breathtaking panoramas of snow-capped mountains and rugged cliffs. 

Kleine Scheidegg serves as the junction for adventurers heading towards the Jungfraujoch, but it’s also a destination in its own right, offering cozy mountain restaurants and stunning hiking trails. 

Your private guide will share fascinating insights into the region’s history and geology, making your journey to Kleine Scheidegg an unforgettable part of your Swiss Alps adventure.

Jungfrau Railway to the Summit

At Kleine Scheidegg, we transfer to the Jungfrau Railway as you head straight into the heart of the Swiss Alps, culminating in the majestic Jungfraujoch, famously known as the “Top of Europe.” 

As the train ascends through the mountain’s core, you’ll be treated to the awe-inspiring sight of the Eigerwand and Eismeer stations, where panoramic windows offer a glimpse into the Alpine wilderness’s frozen heart. 

Arrival at Jungfraujoch

Jungfraujoch, Sphinx Observatory, Switzerland

Once you arrive at Jungfraujoch, take your time to absorb the panoramic views from the Sphinx Observatory, one of the highest astronomical observatories in the world.

Explore the Ice Palace, a collection of ice sculptures carved into the glacier. Other attractions include the Alpine Sensation, a tribute to the railway’s history, and the Snow Fun Park, where you can try snow tubing, skiing, or snowboarding.

We will also make lunch reservations for you at one of the restaurants with a view of the Aletsch Glacier, the longest glacier in the Alps.

I had a wonderful experience with Private Tours Switzerland in the Jungfrau Region, Bernese Alps in Switzerland. Private Tours Switzerland created an unforgettable journey through the stunning scenery and showed us some beautiful places in Lauterbrunnen and Mürren. I decided to book a private tour as these often offer a more personal and intimate experience. I enjoyed exploring the scenic beauty, seeing the waterfalls and some parts of Lauterbrunnen and I also really enjoyed the charm of Mürren and Gimmelwald. The personal attention and knowledge of Marc helped me to fully appreciate the breathtaking beauty of the Swiss Alps. It was a magical day and I would recommend Private Tours Switzerland to anyone looking for an unforgettable Swiss adventure. And thank you again for the swiss raclette with the best view on Mount Eiger.
