Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe

3454m - 11332 ft

On the final evening, we will visit the world-famous Jungfraujoch and dine on the Kleine Scheidegg. An impressive experience for all congress participants!

The V-Cableway on which we will be traveling is one of the largest infrastructure projects in the Alps. More details about this modern railroad, which opened in 2020, can be found in this video (You can select English subtitles in the settings).


On the Jungfraujoch you will have the opportunity to marvel at a snowcat of the latest generation. If you are interested, you can visit the New Holland PLM Snow, a unique automation project worldwide. A specialist will be on hand to answer any questions. More information can be found here
