Jungfraujoch and the Aletsch
The window depends on col wind and glacier visibility; book with alternate days on Lauterbrunnen or Gampel packages.
- Glacier terrain with marked crevasses
- Advanced / expert level
- Plan B on Petersgrat or Kanderfirn
Jungfraujoch is the glacier col between Jungfrau and Mönch: High Alpine atmosphere and access to the Aletsch. Flown from Sion or Gampel; not the tourist train — a heliski landing on glacier terrain.
