Tip 14: Jungfraujoch
 
The Jungfraujoch is Switzerland's most famous day trip. Travel up to Europe's highest railway station - you won't believe your eyes!
Lose all sense of direction as the little train travels deeper and deeper into the mountain. And suddenly it stops at the viewing holes looking straight onto the North Face of the Eiger. Further on, marvel at the sea of ice, while from the top, gaze at the row upon row of mountain peaks which lie before the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. Alpine choughs dive deep down into the valleys of the Bernese Oberland, and on the other side, the mighty Aletsch glacier flows down towards Canton Valais. The views and the thin air at 3,571m will take your breath away. Visit the ice palace with its sculptures, take a trip on a dog sled or climb up to the Mönchsjoch Hut - all part of the mountain dream. Then take the little train back down the mountain, past the Lauberhorn and the Staubbach fall, and through dense forests and green meadows, to Interlaken.

Typically Swiss - the PostBus

Yellow, a 100 years old and beautifully in tune - the Swiss PostBus. Epitome of reliability, continuity and limitless travel in the Swiss Alps. With its three-note horn echoing around the valleys since 1906, the PostBus carries an average of 100 million passengers over 10,000 km per year to the most remote corners of the country, including the National Park (4 routes). its melodious "do-da-dah" - C sharp, E, A - was inspired by Rossini's William Tell overture, but is almost certainly more widely recognized than the original! Whenever heard, it inspires romance, and in spite of its incredibly modern fleet, also a touch of nostalgia. For more information about the PostBus, visit: www.postabus.ch
