The Jungfrau, at 4,158 meters is one of the main summits of the Bernese Alps, located between the northern canton of Bern and the southern canton of Valais, halfway between Interlaken and Fiesch. It is one of the most distinctive sights of the Swiss Alps.
The first ascent was made in 1811 on the eastern or Valais side by two Swiss brothers, Rudolf and Hieronymus Meyer. It was not until 1865 that two Englishmen made the first ascent from the difficult western, or Interlaken, side, and in 1927 two guides climbed the south side.
One of Europe’s highest railways (constructed 1896–1912) cuts a 4.4-mile-long tunnel through the Eiger and Mönch peaks to the Jungfraujoch, a pass (11,335 feet) between the Mönch and Jungfrau peaks.
