How to Spend 3 Days in the Swiss Alps
Three days in the Swiss Alps are just enough time to take in the highlights of this scenic part of Europe. Here's how to do it.
Mid-June to September is prime climbing season for Monch. To get there from Interlachen, take the train to Jungfraujoch. From there, it is a short walk to the start of the route along the southeast ridge of the mountain. Expect it to take about 2 or 3 hours up the southeast ridge and another two hours down. Guides can be hired on a per day basis and range from $200 to $400 depending on how many climbers there are per guide.
