The first natural landmark in the Alps to be included in the UNESCO World Heritage List (2001) is one of the most beautiful mountains of Switzerland named Jungfrau.
The name is German for "maiden", which is derived from the name of the neighbouring monastery.
The peak is also jokingly referred to as "Mme Meyer" (Mrs. Meyer), in honour of brothers Johann and Hieronymus Meyer who were the first to ascend the mountain in 1811.
Jungfrau rises at 4,158 meters and is the third highest mountain in the Bernese Alps.
The border between the northern canton of Bern and the southern canton of Valais goes right through the summit of the mountain.
The surrounding territory is the largest glaciated area in Europe, but at the same time, the landscapes feature high contrast.
There are breathtaking cliffs on the north-west, the ultra white areas in the west, and the ice-covered south-east.
All these things are against the background of a bright blue sky.
