At first, a hike to the Mönchsjochhütte does not seem too difficult. But with the thin air up here, it is quite tedious, the specified walking time of 45 min. observed. Nevertheless, highly recommended 👍🏼

May 1, 2022,Die Mönchsjochhütte(3657m)

Finally a hike at high altitude again. Although it wasn't long, it was quite tiring. Due to a cheap ticket, which I got by chance, I spontaneously went to the Jungfraujoch today. Always a great experience. The problem, however, is the enormous difference in altitude, which you can cover in less than an hour. From Grindelwald you race up from …

August 11, 2021,Wanderung: "Top of Europe" Jungfraujoch - Mönchsjochhütte - Jungfraujoch

Top of Europe was the destination today and we enjoyed the numerous tourists (we were too). Also made the short hike to the Mönchsjochütte (lunch) on the snow. When the snow is as soft as it was today, the short path with the relatively small ascent at this altitude becomes a longer hike * smile *.
