The Jungfrau in the Bernese Oberlands Region of the Swiss Alps

The Jungfrau ( 4158m ) in the Bernese Oberlands

The Jungfrau is the westernmost and highest of the famous Eiger, Mönch, Jungfrau trilogy.

 It is a high altitude alpine route with an easy approach by train.

Jungfrau is a great snowy mountain and a centre for tourism in the Bernese Oberland.

 Its spectacular North Face towers nearly 10,000 feet from the valley below.

 Jungfrau and its neighbouring peak Mönch ( 4099m ) are separated by a col at Jungfraujoch

 that holds an observatory, a railway station and a hotel.

At 3478 meters this is the highest point in Europe that is reachable by railway

and from which the summit of the Jungfrau is a short, icy climb up the northeast ridge.
