I recognize that train line up to the Ice Palace and terminating at the Jungfraujoch. I vaguely remember discussion of that observatory in a prior Amazing Race as begin near the Eiger, which is integral to that rail route:

From Kleine Scheidegg a railway tunnel runs inside the Eiger and two internal stations provide easy access to viewing-windows in the mountainside. This railway, the Jungfraubahn rack railway, terminates in the Jungfraujoch, between the Mönch and the Jungfrau, at the highest railway station in Europe.

I have made that trip and commented on it, but I can't remember when.

The Sphinx Observatory in Alenavada's picture above was the focus of Amazing Race discussion on November 30 and February 18.

apskip:
Here is a picture that may be near the site of the episode 8 climbing, the north face of the Eiger as seen from Kleine Scheidigg.

Chateau d If:
I suspect that this will be our Pit Stop:  on the grounds of the Hotel Bodmi in Grindelwald
