Weather in July at the Jungfrau and the passes

Short summary – read this first

Arie is planning a trip to Interlaken at the beginning of July and wants to know if the weather will be cold or warm. They're also interested in visiting mountain passes and Jungfrau during their stay. Generally, Arie can expect mild to warm weather in Interlaken but should prepare for colder conditions at higher altitudes like Jungfraujoch.

Key takeaways:
  • Expect warm but unpredictable weather in July in Interlaken.
  • Dress in layers and bring a light jacket for visits to higher altitudes like Jungfraujoch.
  • Check annual average temperatures for locations in the Jungfrau region to help plan your attire.

    You can expect warm but unpredictable. July 2014 was very wet, one of the wettest summers in memory, but it is not cold in Interlaken in July. Summer 2015 was more mild or hot with much less rain. Interlaken will most likely have mild or even hot summer shirtsleeves weather. Jungfraujoch can be cold with the wind but most of the time you can be indoors. A light jacket is all I have ever needed for July visits to Jungfraujoch or Schilthorn or during evening hours in the higher elevation villages.

    Arie-

    The temperatures are extremely dependent on altitude.

    Sun vs. clouds can add to that effect, or subtract.

    In the Jungfrau region you could search for annual average temperatures at Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen, and Jungfraujoch. If you add Kleine Scheidegg, you get an altitude that is high but not up at the Jungfraujoch.

    Indoors is different, obviously, which as noted is relevant to the Jungfrau.
