By the end of February, 74,000 visitors had visited Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe. This represents a decline of 1,300 guests or 1.7% year-on-year. The months from January up to and including April are generally among the weaker months in terms of visitor numbers.

The positive interim result in winter sports had already been announced with the skier visits in the Jungfrau Ski Region over the holiday period at the end of 2019 and beginning of 2020.
