Schilthorn & Jungfraujoch in one day

Short summary – read this first

Ricky121 wants to know if it’s feasible to visit both Schilthorn and Jungfraujoch in one day while staying in Lauterbrunnen. It's possible, but starting early is recommended to avoid rushing. Anna suggests checking the SBB timetable for planning.

Key takeaways:
  • Start your day as early as possible to maximize your time for both excursions.
  • Check the weather forecast since clouds in the afternoon can obscure views at the peaks.
  • Lauterbrunnen offers quicker access to both Schilthorn and Jungfraujoch compared to other areas.

    “Normal” weather pattern (if any weather pattern is still normal) is for clouds to come in during the afternoon, sometimes early afternoon. It is not worth going up any peak for sight seeing if obscured by clouds. Although it is technically feasible to do both peaks in the same day have a back up plan.

    Hi Ricky121,

    For trips to Jungfraujoch and Schilthorn, I think Lauterbrunnen would give you a quicker access. You can use this link to search for hotels in Lauterbrunnen: http://www.myswissalps.com/lauterbrunnen/hotels
