In this Collection, you discover Switzerland’s wonderful mountains as you climb tough passes such as the Grosse Scheidegg in the Bernese Alps and enjoy endless descents. The Jungfrau region is known as one of the most spectacular regions in Switzerland thanks to its lofty snow-capped peaks and alpine landscapes. If high mountains sound too challenging for you, we’ve included route variations so that you can adjust the ride to suit your ability level.
Your adventure begins in the village of Grindelwald in the heart of the Jungfrau region. From here, you head up Kleine Scheidegg to the idyllic villages of Lauterbrunnen and Mürren. On the first stage, you can choose from two variants: easy or crunchy and difficult. The next day, you continue through the beautiful Lütschinen Valley, passing the impressive Staubbach Falls to the village of Wilderswil, the stage destination. Stage 3 takes you to the lovely Brienz Lake where you enjoy a day of wonderful views before spending the night in the village of Meiringen, the setting of Sherlock Holmes’ final showdown with his nemesis Professor Moriaty. This stage offers you the choice between easy paths on the lake’s north shore and crisp, tough climbs on the south shore. On the final stage, you meet the Grosse Scheidegg pass. Here, there is also a slightly easier route to the summit. On the top, you can ride along mountain peaks admiring the wonderful landscape. If your legs need a break after four days riding, you can hop on a bus too.
We have designed this adventure to be adaptable for different ability levels. If you like to push yourself, you can hit the trails hard, climbing more than 6,500 feet (2,000 m) in one day and chasing that alpine feeling. If you prefer to take it easy, you can take the suggested alternative routes, giving you more time to relax in the landscapes.
You can plan your adventure along the Jungfrau Loop on your own or book a package tour. If you go with a tour, you can leave behind your bike bags as they will be dropped off at your accommodation each day.
The 4-day loop starts and finishes in the village of Grindelwald. Nestled in the heart of the Jungfrau region, it’s well-worth spending a few days in the village and the surrounding nature. The village is a great place to relax before exploring even more trails in the region.
