The Eiger Trail

Alpiglen to Eigergletscher. Fabulous three hour walk traversing under the North Face of the Eiger. Craning your neck, you can see the famous climbing routes to the summit, and the mountain windows from the Jungfraujoch Railway tunnel. Trail gains some 2,300 ft. Afterward, board the train at Eigergletscher Station to the saddle between the Jungfrau and the Mönch at over 11k ft. Europe's highest train station!
