Description

Three peaks in the Bernese Alps in Switzerland are in every mountaineer’s dreams. Follow me to climb two of those three: the Monch and Jungfrau on this incredible 2-day adventure.

On our first day, we’ll ride the Jungfraujoch train, Europe’ highest railway. The ride through the North Face of Eiger, the other famous peak in the Bernese Alps, is absolutely stunning and one of the highlights of this trip. We’ll hop off at the Jungfraujoch station, where breathtaking views of the Monch and Jungfrau glacier await us. Then, we’ll climb the Monch glacier, through the South-East ridge. If there’s time, we can also climb the South-West ridge. We’ll spend the night at the Mönchsjoch Hut.

On the second day, we’ll climb Jungfrau through the Rottelsattel Route. We’ll descend through the same route and take the train back to Grindelwald.

This trip is for people with experience in alpine climbing. We’ll be ascending some 45 degree slopes with easy rock. Of course, I will be there to help and guide you!

So follow me on this unforgettable trip in the stunning Alps. Book your trip now and get ready for a thrilling adventure!
