Eigerwand is a currently disused underground railway station on the Jungfrau railway, which runs to the Jungfraujoch from Kleine Scheidegg. The station is situated just behind the north wall of the Eiger, and its principal purpose was to allow passengers to observe the view through a series of windows carved into the rock face. Trains to Jungfraujoch used to stop at the station for five minutes. It also lies right next to the Stollenloch, an exit and unofficial stop which is typically used by mountaineers to bypass the lower approach of the North Face.

  • Eigerwand is a currently disused underground railway station on the Jungfrau railway, which runs to the Jungfraujoch from Kleine Scheidegg. The station is situated just behind the north wall of the Eiger, and its principal purpose was to allow passengers to observe the view through a series of windows carved into the rock face. Trains to Jungfraujoch used to stop at the station for five minutes. However, since late 2016, after the introduction of new, faster, rolling stock, the Jungfraubahn no longer stops here. Indeed, much of the 2017 publicity material fails to acknowledge that this viewpoint station ever existed. The station opened on 28 June 1903, with the extension of the Jungfraubahn from its previous temporary terminus at Rotstock station. After further construction, the line was extended to Eismeer station on 25 July 1905, and Eigerwand became an intermediate stop. Administratively, the station is in the municipality of Grindelwald in the canton of Bern. However, the only access to the station other than by train is a door in the sheer face of the mountain. This has, on occasion, been used to rescue mountaineers stranded on the mountain, most famously during the 1936 Eiger north face climbing disaster. It also lies right next to the Stollenloch, an exit and unofficial stop which is typically used by mountaineers to bypass the lower approach of the North Face. Prior to its closure, the following passenger trains operated: (en)

  • Station Eigerwand is een ondergronds spoorwegstation in de Zwitserse gemeente Grindelwald op 2.865 m.ü.M. hoogte vlak achter de noordwand van de Eiger. Het station is door een 6 km lange tunnel van station Jungfraujoch, het eindstation van de Jungfraubahn verwijderd. Het station werd geopend als voorlopig eindstation van de spoorwegverbinding op 28 juni 1903, na zeven jaar bouwwerk aan de Jungfraubahn. De tunnelbouwers bereikten de locatie van het station reeds op 7 maart 1899. Het overlijden van de drijvende kracht achter de Jungfraubahn, Adolf Guyer-Zeller, op 3 april 1899, en zijn opvolging door zijn zoon zorgden voor een eerste vertraging. De verdere verbreding en afwerking van de tunnel en het station Eigerwand vergden ook nog de nodige tijd en werden in 1903 afgewerkt. Enkel de treinen bergopwaarts stoppen in dit station. De trein blijft vijf minuten staan wat bezoekers toelaat te genieten door vensters in de noordwand van de Eiger van het uitzicht op Grindelwald. Het treinstation bevat ook een deur die op de noordflank uitgeeft. Deze route is reeds meermaals gebruikt voor reddingsacties om bergbeklimmers in problemen van de wand te ontzetten. * * (nl)
