Jungfraujoch — east ridge of the Jungfrau

Jungfraujoch - Arête est de la Jungfrau

🇨🇭 Bern · Switzerland — Altitude 3697 m

Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDMountains

This camera looks out over the east ridge of the Jungfrau from Jungfraujoch, one of the highest railway stations in Europe. It is useful for anyone wondering what the high Bernese Alps look like right now, before planning a visit or simply watching the weather move across the peaks.

About the setting

Jungfraujoch sits in a saddle between the Jungfrau and the Mönch in the Bernese Oberland, at about 3,700 metres above sea level. The area is known for its glaciers, rock faces and the Aletsch Glacier, the largest in the Alps. The air is thin and the terrain is stark, so the view changes quickly with cloud, wind and snowfall.

What to watch for

The ridge is most interesting when clouds break and light moves across the snow, often in the morning and late afternoon. In winter the slopes are white and sharply defined, while summer brings more rock and meltwater. Conditions can shift within minutes, so the picture may show clear sky, drifting cloud or fresh snow depending on the moment you tune in.

Practical notes

Summer is generally the easiest season for travel to the high station, with winter sports conditions in colder months. Temperatures at this altitude stay well below freezing for much of the year, so warm clothing is essential even in July. Nearby cameras at Lauterbrunnen, Grindelwald and the Eiger Glacier show the lower valleys and surrounding routes.
