With its snow-capped peaks, alpine villages, and turquoise lakes, the Jungfrau Region is one of the most magical corners of Switzerland. In this episode, I’m sharing a well-paced, three-day Swiss itinerary designed for first-time visitors who want to experience the highlights without feeling rushed, from epic mountain excursions to peaceful lakeside moments.

I take you through unforgettable experiences like riding the cogwheel train to Jungfraujoch, often called the Top of Europe, exploring the charming car-free village of Murren, and standing in awe at the summit of Schilthorn. You'll also get my insider travel tips for navigating the region efficiently with a Swiss rail pass, including how to make the most of Switzerland cable cars and train connections.

You’ll hear about stunning lake cruises on both Lake Brienz and Lake Thun, must-see stops like the powerful Trümmelbach Falls, and gentle hikes such as the alpine lake hike to Bachalpsee at Grindelwald First. For those looking for classic things to do in Interlaken, don’t miss the panoramic views from Harder Kulm or the charming Lauterbrunnen waterfalls.

Planning a quick getaway or a longer Swiss vacation? This episode will help you choose the right experiences in the Jungfrau Region, stay on schedule, and enjoy every moment of your journey whether you travel Switzerland by train or car.

Safe travels,

Carolyn
