Overview
Kleine Scheidegg sits at 2061 m on a pass between the Lauberhorn ridge and the dramatic peaks of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. The village is little more than a railway station and two hotels, but it offers access to Europe's highest railway station at Jungfraujoch (3454 m) and spectacular alpine hiking through meadows and past glaciers.
