Climbers ascending Jungfrau, in the Bernese Alps, Switzerland

Imagine the breathtaking view these climbers will get when they summit Jungfrau. As one of the most prominent peaks in Switzerland’s Bernese Alps, Jungfrau sees its fair share of brave climbers making their way to the top each year. If the weather’s not right, it can take three hours to make the final 725-foot ascent from the last campsite up to the summit.
