We caught the train to Wengen from Lauterbrunnen valley. This is free with the Swiss Travel pass. We then caught the cable car from Wengen to Mannlichen which was half price with the Swiss travel pass (11.50 CHF each for a one way journey). The cable cars were frequent so even though the queue was big we were up there quickly. 95% of the people in our cable car were skiers as it was winter. Once at the top most people begin on the ski slopes but if you take a left straight as you come out of the station you can see the peak. It is a short walk and relatively easy but some bits were a bit tricker in the snow. Took about 20-25 minutes walking up. The views at the top were beautiful, you had 360 views in all direction. You could see Lake Thun in thr distance, Lauterbrunnen valley below and amazing views of the Eiger, Monch and Juangfrau. There was not one person at the top of the Royal Walk so it was beautiful...

The panoramic walk was absolutely stunning—truly living up to its name. If you’re in the Jungfrau Region, I highly recommend adding this trail to your itinerary. The path is mostly flat and very family-friendly, making it accessible for children as well. We took the gondola up and hiked down, which allowed us to fully appreciate the breathtaking views. But do check the weather before booking tickets, we were blessed with a good day today.

As you near the end of the trail, there are plenty of restaurants, especially around the train station, making it easy to grab a bite after your trek. Overall, it was a fantastic day spent soaking in the beauty of nature—an experience that felt like a true testament to the wonders...
