    I will be visiting this weekend to Interlaken and planning to come to Jungfrau via rail.

    I have my 2.5 yr old daughter with me.

    Is it ok to bring kids at such high altitude? Will there be any problems due to the low oxygen level?

    Hello,

    I believe the only thing you should be prepared for is the train ride up/down. A last part of it is through the mountain the dark. Nothing to keep even an adult occupied for that part.

    Yes indeed. And as for medical restrictions, they generally only apply to children under 2 years old. It is explained on myswissalps.com/ jungfraujoch.
