Jungfrau Railway Group – More than 1 million guests visit the Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe

In an ad hoc announcement pursuant to Art. 53 of the Listing Rules, Jungfraubahn Holding AG announces that the visitor numbers in 2023 increased significantly again compared to the previous year. 1,007,000 guests visited the Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe, which essentially corresponds to the pre-pandemic level. Regarding the Experience Mountains, Firstbahn and Harderbahn set new records and the Lauterbrunnen-Mürren mountain rail- and cableway achieved pre-pandemic figures. The 2023/2024 winter season got off to a good start.

 

In 2023, around 1,007,000 guests visited the Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe. That is 61.1 per cent more than in 2022 and only 4.6 per cent less than in the record year 2019. The increase in visits last year developed into a month-on-month increase. There was a strong increase in visitors from Southeast Asia, India and the USA in particular, while the number of tourists from China and Japan also rose again in the second half of the year. In addition to the numerous individual travellers, there was also an increasing number of groups on the Jungfrau Railway Group's trains. There was still a shortfall of around 120,000 guests in tour groups, which is primarily attributable to the Chinese and Japanese markets.
